Hey guy I'm so close to finishing my turbo swap into my 92 (3.0) but today I went to bolt the power steering pump on and It does not clear the gear box. The power steering pump is out of the 86 turbo coupe. I need to know what year truck i can take the power steering pump out of to make it work. It will have to be non serpentine pump. Another question is will i have to change all of the pulleys over to ranger pulleys after i find a power steering pump so the belt alignment will be the same?

Man I was so ready to have everything bolted on today! I went out this morning and bought a new radiator and hoses. I saw what hoses you said worked... Thanks! This just SUCKS! lol. :bawling: I might have to find a 92 2.3 ranger with out air and pull all the pulley off of it and just go serpentine. IDK

The one out of the turbo coupe. I trimmed part of it off so it would drop down far enough so it would bolt in but it was still setting on the power steering pump hoses and only one of the belts would clear the gear box.

I got every this taken care of today. I went to the junk yard and bought the power steering pump and all of the serpentine pulleys out of a older style ranger. I also put in my new radiator.
