Is it possible without breaking anything to just pull the ps pump and call it a day?

Turning will be a bitch.

Look for an 84-up S10 manual steering box. Only downside is they're 7.25 turns lock to lock. Direct bolt in after switching pitman arms.

So like between the inner tie rod ends is the steering box?

to turn the the front wheels left about 30* with a power steering box- it takes about 1 full turn of the steering wheel "assisted" because of the low ratio of leverage. Without assist, the force needed to turn the wheel that rapidly is like riding a road bicycle in top gear from a takeoff. You need to get a manual 'unassisted box" which is like a lower gear ratio/ higher leverage like an 25:1 ratio box rather than a 12:1 box that needs power assist. A manual box will take about two turns to get the same angle as a power box would do with one turn.
