How do these brackets go togeter? HELP!

I screwed up. I just installed my SLP 1 3/4" headers today. Went in real easy. I got in a hurry though, and disassembled the AC and power steering brackets to get them in. Now I can't remember how they went back together. Anyone have a pic or diagram of how they go? It's an 82 with the v-belt system, AC compressor on the driver side. Help me please.

No pic, but Ill try to type a 1000 words to make up for it


Ok, the PS. There is a long bracket, curved, bent 90 and about 1" on each side of that 90. That bolts to the block, the back of the PS (held on by a nut) and then one of the exhaust bolts (the front one) goes through it. The AC bracket goes over the top of this bracket, on the front 2 exhaust bolts, and fits in a hole in the large PS bracket.

If I get wild and crazy, Ill snap a pic and pray it comes out since Im short of my 1000 words

No pic, camera battery dead Couldnt get a good shot at it anyway, wouldnt have helped much.

Thanks guys. Madmax, your post was just what I needed to get those brackets together. That long curved PS bracket was throwing me off. Now, if I can only get enough time to actualy finish...
