That looks similiar to the setup I hope to be getting soon. For now I just took the belt off and im driving it without power steering.



I got the 402L bracket in a few days ago, got it powder coated and mounted today. Worked great but a few notes.

I had to change my power steering pump out for one with a lower rear mount threaded lug hole on the back of the reservoir. I just ran up to the parts store and got one for a 75-78 camaro, cost 75$ out the door with the core!

Got that home, mounted it all up, found out the threaded inlet for the power steering pump was different so I had to swap that off the old power steering pump. Probably should have checked before bolting it all in their but oh well.. After that we got it back in the car, at this point we found out the threads for the upper rear mounting lug on the newly re manufactured power steering pump were filled with abrasive.. So I had to clean and tap that out.

Also when pressing on the pulley the bracket comes with a measurement and its quite literally what it says, from the face of the pump not the face of the reservoir.

The belt i'm using is 46inches but I could have gone with the 44inches, got it from tractor supply for 8$


My baby got power steering!
