Default 1980 Series 3 88 Santana Steering System

Does anyone have any experience with replacing steering components on a 1980 Santana Series 3 88? Have you found standard LR steering components to fit properly on a Santana?
I'm still troubleshooting, but already know I"ll need new ball joints...and possibly either a steering relay or a steering box...or, worst case, maybe both.
I see multiple sources offering LR parts, but hardly anyone has any technical data on Santanas that confirm LR steering components are interchangeable. I know from experience, some Santana parts are not the same as standard LR parts.
Before I try ordering any parts, I'd like to hear from anyone who has had good luck replacing original Santana steering components with aftermarket LR parts.
Thanks for your advice and experience.

LR replacement parts for steering components you list are the same.
