Power steering pump bracket (help)
I have a problem with my power steering belt and bracket. I was wanting to see if anyone had some pictures of a power steering bracket on a 350. this isnt an original engine so I think somethings missing or its just wrong.
Im new at this. I tried to post a pic. dont know if it worked yet.

If it's the '86 system, it has V-belts for the AC, power steering, and A.I.R. pump, and a flat multi-groove belt for the alternator (which also goes around the water pump, like the AC & PS).
I don't have a picture that I can post here (Board only lets you post a pic once). I'm having trouble linking the thread that does have it. I'll keep trying.

If you can't get to it, look for a closed post called "The Beginning of the End" last post 07-06-2005. Post #4 has the picture I'm talking about.

Re: Power steering pump bracket (help)
Is it all installed and working now?
I posted about the same thing (which bracket goes where sorta thing), for a fully v-belt setup.
If you need to, search for my thread, I put in some good high res pictures in it.
