Power steering bracket bolts
I was driving back from the Moultrie swap meet and my power steering gave out. I had just turned the wheel to pull into a gas station when it happened. I figured the belt gave out but my bracket bolts had broken off in the block. Anybody ever had that problem? The pump was just dangling there.

Re: Power steering bracket bolts
Never heard of that. What gorilla torqued those bolts?

Re: Power steering bracket bolts
I just figured out that the PO added the power steering. Maybe he used some cheap cheesy ass bolts. I'll find out when I drill into them tomorrow. This is going to be at least a two beer job....
