Power steering bracket info needed 86 GMC

[mercman1951]

Hi All,

After putting dual exhaust on my truck, I am finally re-assembling the front dress, (I had removed the exhaust manifolds to put in new studs), I took off the A/C pump and the Power Steering pump. Like a dummy, I didn't make note of where stuff went, and now I can't seem to figure out what goes where. I am thinking of leaving the AC off, but I need to remount the power steering pump, and I am coming up with one leftover bracket (see pic). The pump is close to bolting on without the extra bracket, but not quite lining up on the adjuster side. Does anybody have pics of the stock pulley setup on their trucks? It's an '86 350 2WD.



Not quite lining up:

Never mind. I got it. The bracket goes on the back of the pump. I thought it was overkill since there are already 3 mount points on the pump, the bracket goes between the block and the pump, the pump uses a thread on the backside to go into it. In reality, with a couple washers it could be left off, but I opted to leave off the A/C pump and bracket instead.

Thanks anyway.
