Ford 289-351W Drivers Side Power Steering Brkt

The Ford 289-351W Drivers Side Power Steering Brkt from Vintage Air is a precision-engineered mounting solution designed for small block Ford engine conversions and restorations. This driver-side power steering pump bracket serves as the foundation for integrating modern power steering systems into classic Ford applications, making it an essential component for builders restoring or upgrading 289 and 351W powered vehicles. Whether you're performing a frame-off restoration or installing a modern cooling and steering package into a vintage Ford, this bracket ensures proper pump alignment and secure mounting.

Constructed from steel in a natural finish, this block-mount bracket offers durability and compatibility with small block Ford engine platforms. The design positions the power steering pump for optimal belt routing and clearance within tight engine bay configurations common to early Ford models. Steel construction resists vibration and engine heat cycling, ensuring long-term reliability under demanding driving conditions. The bracket's compact footprint—measuring 8.9 x 6.6 x 10.9 inches and weighing just 2.57 lbs—allows for seamless integration without requiring extensive engine bay modification or custom fabrication.

Restoration enthusiasts, hot rod builders, and classic car shops rely on this bracket as part of complete power steering system upgrades for 289 and 351W applications. Installation requires standard automotive tools and basic mechanical knowledge, with the bracket securing directly to the engine block for a factory-style appearance. This component is commonly ordered alongside matching cooling system and fuel system components to create a cohesive vintage-to-modern powertrain conversion. Proper installation results in smooth, responsive power steering feel that significantly improves drivability compared to manual steering in classic Ford vehicles.
