Any pics of 6 cylinder P.S. brackets? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

bobs409 · 04-17-2003, 07:12 AM

I have no idea on how to mount a power steering pump to a 6 cylinder! Looking at the engine, I don't even see where there would be room to do so as the alternator looks to be in the way.

Can anyone show me pics of the bracket(s), and maybe an engine with one mounted on?

Tried search but that seems to be out of whack ?!?

How many separate pieces are there to the bracket set?

EDIT: Looking at the photos, there appear to be about 4 parts to it.
Second question, is there an interelationship with the alternator brackets?

My setup is completely different from JHickson6's. My alternator is on top and outboard. His appears to be on the bottom. I have no idea whether mine is stock or not... and I'm guessing not given some of the other oddities under the hood.

Yeah the lower bracket on mine went to the upper alternator bolt and the other just mounted to the cylinder head, on the top and front. Hope that helps!

Thanks alot guys! The pics really help.

I didn't realize that the PS pump goes above the alternator. I was thinking it went way low. That explains why it didn't look right to me.

This is my first 6 cylinder so I wasn't sure.

Now the search is on for the right brackets! I suspect any 6 cylinder would be the same whether car or truck.
