    Well, seems that during the winter I've managed to have lost some small parts:oops:
    One of them, which is actually kinda important right now, is the small bolt that goes through the bottom hole of the p/s-pump and into the engine block(or maybe it was the water pump?.. haven't looked at it for a while:p)..
    So I guess I have replace it:oops:
    Anyways, does anyone here have info on the size, length and pitch of it? I think it's about an inch long or so?:hmmm:

    Figured I'd just try to get near correct measurements on it, and get it brand new.. Wouldn't have to think about shipping etc(Shipping could easily jump up to 10-20$):p

    Yup:p
    But like I said, I think it was somewhere around an inch long and matches the threads in the engine block..
    Maybe someone that has P/S could unscrew the bolt from their car an take a pic or two? :)

    My cd sucks. It has so much info you get lost. I found the illustration but it gives bolts in part #s not sizes. It's also 73-79.

    Agreed, got kinda lost looking at it.. Really had to focus:p But it looks like there are two or three of that bolt I'm looking for on that setup. My setup will be kinda homemade, had to weld together and bend a custom adjustable bracket between the water pump and p/s pump..
    The one I'm looking for is the one going trough the adjustable bracket and into the non-adjustable bracket mounted directly on the p/s pump.. You can see it down and to the left on the picture :)

    I bet it's the same as the ones that bolt the pump to the bracket. You could take one out and match it.
