It may seem simple but I have been trying to come up with a clean and efficient power steering design for the Volvord. Well the wait is over ... almost.

EBay comes to the rescue again as someone has already done all the design & engineering.

The solution:



The bracket and pump are "in the mail"

not even power assist on the volvord? ouch! a volvo as a muscle car...i love it!

You mean you have not noticed my bulging biceps needed to steer the .... oh forget it

Why didn't you use the volvo power steering pump? or... am I missing something here?

That was one option, but I would have to design and manufacture the brackets, this is much easier and I really don't have the time to fart around when someone else has already come up with the solution

oh Ian, I noticed your bulging manly biceps, I just didn't realize they came from driving the volvord that's all!

Uh...the fact that a Volvo power steering pump doesn't necessarily bolt to a Ford engine?

Oh, you're right - I forgot that bracketry was rocket surgery... No wait a minute.

Your right that brackets are not rocket science but they need to be exact or you will toss belts, but:

1) for $30 why would I bother even trying to make a bracket which would take a considerable amount of time and never look as good.

2) buy the propper P/S pump where I can easily make steel braided AN lines rather than having to get custom lines made, which would probably cost as much as what I paid for the pump.

p.s. by the way the pump is a Lee Racing aluminum body unit

ohhh, fancy!

Supa Dupa Schmancy

It's not like you're struggling for horsepower, so what the hell, eh?

Nothing wrong with a bolt on for the right price!
