Does anyone sell power steering pump brackets? So I don't have to spend a week designing them?
For the 230? If so, no...never seen anyone sell anything like that.
If for another motor, would need to know which one...
Yes. The 230.Quote:

Others that keep the multi belt 24 volt alternator have made theirs different. If you are doing that, I suggest a CUCV dual belt power steering pulley or a HMMWV 3 or 4 belt pulley/pump.
I wonder if there would be any demand for brackets if I design and make some?
Very low numbers, I would think. Most people keeping the 230 are going to for stock set ups that don't include a power steering.
My truck came with some home made brackets and GM pump. They quickly came off, NOS Stock steering gear went on and I love it. Pump, box and brackets went to the scrapper.Quote:

I have AC and power steering brackets for the 230 that came off of a wagoneer.
Good point, I'd bet they fit better. How do the pulleys line up?Quote:

Circling back here, years later. Did you make up a bracket, and if so, can you post a picture?
