power steering
Got looking at my power steering pump now the engine is out and it doesn't bolt up to the 1.3 block, it's a 1992 vitara pump, doesn't look brilliantly simple to bodge either, does anyone know if the Jimny one bolts straight up? If so I'll look for one of them!

Re: power steering

Re: power steering
Hey dude
I think there's something about triming down
A thread mount on the block and re drilling the bracket
Drop Steve green a pm as I think he's done it. Im going to be
Doing It soon ish.
Its the bottom pulley that can be an issue
I bought mine from America

Re: power steering
This is the mod I did to mine when fitting it to the 1.3 engine.
Just a little tab welded on, and re-drill a couple of holes. I seem to remember it wasn't running parallel to the crank front to back, so I had to slightly adjust a mounting pad on the engine block to true it up.
It's a bit of a PITA, but just fiddly to get right.

Re: power steering
Oh yeah, you need to fabricate a wedge too to fit a Vitara steering box (but not for a Jimny one). I'm sure I have details, but cant just find it at the moment. I will find it and put it up later if no one else does, as it's a common file on forums.

Re: power steering
