3. Decided to install the Montero 2.6 gas power steering pump on the motor with a fabricated bracket. Still not sure if I can get it to work with a remote reservoir.


If you go the route of the 2.6 and fabbed bracket, pretty sure the StarQuest pump fits the same bracket. At least, I have a SQ pump on my turbo swapped, and I didn't do anything extra to mount it. The SQ pump has a remote reservoir.
