Need to Mount PS Pump on '68 340

[charliec]

My '68 Dart w/340 came with a power steering box, but the pump/brackets/belts, etc. were all missing. I bought a TRW pump and brackets, and I had the pump rebuilt at Steer & Gear. Now I'm ready to install it, but I don't know exactly where the brackets should mount. I can make some guesses, but if someone has a similar setup, it would be most helpful to have a few good photos.

Attached are photos of what I have now. I'm guessing that the bosses where I have my fingers are for the mounting bolt and the belt adjuster/tensioner. Correct?

Does the pump drive off of the middle sheave of the crank pulley?

That looks correct, I have same pump. I'll get pics after work.

Looks like you got it right to me. @Oldmanmopar Steve is good at this stuff, too.

Ps belt goes to outer sheave on crank pulley. Be careful with top bolt, I only loosen it enuf to adjust/tighten belt. It may lead to coolant, I cant remember

Thanks. That helps. Your "outer"sheave is my "middle" sheave because my crank pulley has three sheaves.

Glad to help, good catch with 2 vs 3 sheaves. The original on our 273 is 3 sheave and HEAVY lol .
