Mat, what bracket did you use to mate of the P/S pump. I added one to mine and was able to find an original V-6 bracket, yours looks different from the photo angle.

Re: What did you do to your truck today part IV

Finished up the wiring under the driver side of the dash, instrument cluster, and steering column. Before I zip tie everything, I thought I had better do a turn signal circuit test. Now, onto the AC.

Installed my new kick panels that I purchased from
Atomic Armadillo Metal Fab. www.a2metalfab.com
They have been painted and distressed to match my interior.
