SVO power steering pump bracket

[SVOfish]

Got the svo started up and finished jut need a couple more pieces to finish, I'm looking for a power steering pump bracket. If anyone had a power steering pump bracket they are willing to part with please, please, let me know.

Two different kinds - early and late. If your alt tensioner brace is a flat, curved piece that has a slider/adjuster slot on both the PS bracket mount and the alternator, that's the early mount. Uses three bolts (10x1.5x30mm) bolts to mount to the lower clock.

The later style uses four bolts to mount the bracket to the block and has a fixed upper alternator adjuster bracket. Look at the second pic in the Tucson MCA thread ( http://www.svocop.com/forum/showthread.php?2969-MCA-Tucson-Show-03-27-29-2015 ) for an example of the later bracket. On the later style, the PS pump pulley must be pulled before the alt adjuster bracket bolts can be removed.

I probably have one of each somewhere. Will need to look. Good weekend project.

Mike, it appears to me that the power steering bracket currently on my SVO came off an XR4TI. I will take picture and post when I get home (At work still) But my PS bracket looks like this (http://carphotos.cardomain.com/ride_images/2/4074/3081/22684040002_large.jpg) I would like to get a correct SVO PS bracket . Do you by chance know if he alt bracket that bolts on the head is the same as he xrs? I will get a picture of my alt bracket on the head too.

What year is your SVO? The change over was a running change made during the MY85 production year. Some pics of the later PS nracket and associated alternator tensioner adjuster bracket. The rearward brace between the top of the alt adjuster bracket and the forward/outer stud n the sqaure intake came with most in-line intakes. The upper AC side brackets also changed at the same time to stiffen up the forward accessories to reduce NVH complaints.

The alternator bracket is the same across all years. Before/after PowderCoating, installed.

Mine is an '86. Yep, that's the alternator bracket I have (that bolts on the head) so I just need to get a ps pump bracket with the alt. Tension bracket like the ones in your picture. Let me know if you have a spare and are willing to part with it.

Didn't see them in the easy-to-access boxes I searched through last PM. Will need to dig much deeper. Weekend project.

Okay, sounds great. Keep me posted and thanks for looking!

I found a late PS bracket with attached alternator adjuster brackets & associated bolts. It's kinda dirty though. Will upload pics later.

Pics. Later next week I can toss it in the blast cabinet (walnut shells) and clean it all up.
