AC delete/power steering bracket Q?

I just was finishing up my ac delete project and as I was trying to tighten the belt for the power steering I noticed that due to the removal of the ac compressor that there is nothing holding that side of the PS bracket anymore. What do I do has anyone run into this problem?? I was thinking of getting a PS bracket from a non-ac car and maybe that would work?

Car: a car being parted out
Engine: blown up
Transmission: in peices
ran into same prob with my 83 full size GMC.
I ended up getting a supper short belt and used the adjustment on the PS mount.
I went Crank/WP/PS on one groove, Crank/WP/Alt on the other.

well thats the way mine is right now. its not necessarily the belt but the fact that the bracket which holds the PS is just dangling there due to unbolting the ac compressor i guess the PS bracket attached to it somehow, I just need a new bracket I guess? Does anyone know an application that I can get a bracket from im supposing its going to have to be a non-ac car? anyone ever come across this problem? needing some help

here is all i could find....

the one stainless is a 1/2" x 1" stainless steel stock with a slot made at the end for adjustability, and a spacer as well...

the other is a stock A/C bracket Cut, so it is just one little bar...
