Big thanks to Wally for pointing out a key piece missing from my power steering pump. The bracket that attaches between the exhaust manifold and the power steering adjusting link. It is also clearly pictured on 9-15 figure 7 as Billy mentioned. How I missed that, as the FSM was beside me the entire time, is a whole other question.
Wally's picture is here:

Any help or leads would be much appreciated. I'm concerned driving it is such a fashion as it can't be doing the PS pump any good,nor the belts.
Thanks!

Matt Looks to me like one could be fabricated from a piece of angle iron.
If you don't want to, or can't do that, have you called Jim K? 1-800-752-7502 Or Jim Bounds? (407) 857-5777
