Big Bronco PS Pump Bracket - What Pump Fits?

[rob wilson]

When I converted to a serp setup, I used the brackets from an 86 Big Bronco at the local yard. I'm currently using the pump that that previous owner installed when he added power steering and don't know what type it is (other than overworked).

Anyone have any recommendations on what pumps will fit? I've got a leak somewhere so rather than mess with it, I'm going to replace the pump and if required the lines. I would like to stay with the bracket I have since I had to fab an idler pully to make it all work and right now it does.

I'd like to use something I can get at a local NAPA etc. so it'll have a lifetime warrantee.

I would recommend doing the sag pump conversion. It is completely bolt on. Some tech articles are listed below...

The answer......any pump fits.(with a little creativity and modification)

Other than getting another Ford pump, you could get the P.S. bracket from a Ford van 88-96 w/5.0 or 5.8 engine. These vans used a Saginaw pump. My engine came out of a 93 Bronco and I just used the van p.s.bracket to use a saginaw pump. Since you're using a 5.0 block and heads, it should fit with no problem. On a 351w/5.8 the van bracket requires a little trimming (grinding) to clear the PS box.
