WANTED: Big Block PS Pump Bracketry... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

-Greg72 · 12-21-2004, 06:52 PM

From what I've heard, they're as rare as hen's teeth but the bracket I've got is twisted and probably not fixable.

To clarify, what I'm looking for is the bracketry for the 2-piece power steering setup. The pump is a ROUND style (not the teardrop, which is more common) and it has a seperate filler canister that mounts to either the core support or fender and connects via rubber hose.

The lower bracket is a fairly long part and is what I need. Mine was damaged and re-welded and the holes do not allow the pump to sit "square" to the rest of the pullies so it's just a matter of time before I destroy the bearings in the pump with all the crazy side-loading.

Anyone that can help? Santa?.....I've been good this year!

You guys are awesome (as always!) at solving my problems..... thanks to both of you for responding.

That eBay auction looks exactly like what I've got now....except they look straight and nice. What should I expect to pay for a NOS part? The auction is at $50 (reserve not met) and I'm assuming the $64.95 version is a repro???
