I always remember looking like the attached. The arm goes from the back of the pump to an engine mount bracket bolt.

Note that there are a few longer bolts and spacers that are needed too as the bracket attaches with engine bolts.

The black engine in VK used a remote reservoir and the pump mounted low on the passenger side. I can't seem to find a photo but if memory serves the original bracket is quite small as it bolts close to the block, along the lines of the alternator one datto linked.

 

The blue which was originally in the VH used the integrated reservoir style pump on the driver side with a larger bracket more like what yel linked.

 

I think your bracket looks custom made, possibly mounts the VK style pump on the lower rubber eyelets close to the block, and the alternator up on the top one in conjunction with another bracket? The rubber mounts won't be very helpful, looks like they might be ends cut off a panhard rod.

Thanks for the help yel327,76lxhatch. Very helpful.
Your probably right .i never actually got to see it
with everything attached. youngest brother had the
motor and swapped set of rebels for it to my other
brother so i dunno.
It may have been on an blue motor as i found blue
Paint on other side where its bolted to alt bracket.
Been under house roughly since 95-98.they have done a
pretty good job if someone made it..

Cheers .

Agree.

WB, VC & VH had the blue motors. I suspect the 6cyl all used the same power steering pump mounting bracket which is the one Yel327 posted a link to.

Commodore p/st pump mounts around this time were very confusing. VB 6-cyl, VC 6-cyl, & VH (3300 only) used the same drivers side mount as HQ-WB & uses the pump with the integral reservoir. These cars also had the alternator & a/c compressor (if fitted) on the passengers side of the engine. The bracket posted by MAZ is a aftermarket version of that mount, which does NOT mount the p/st pump.

 

VH 2850 & VK (carb & EFI) had the p/st pump hung under the alternator on the passengers side of the motor with a remote reservoir & the a/c compressor (if fitted) was mounted on the drivers side of the engine near no.1 & 2 spark plugs.

Sorry guys

Brain fart

The bracket I was thinking of must have been aircon and alt

Seems I haven't taken pics of the PS bracket on the car
