My power steering pump bracket(aluminum) which bolts the PS pump to
the side of the engine is cracked, causing bad belt slippage. This
car does not have AC, and the bracket is different than anything I
have been able to find at the junk yard(mostly cars with AC).
Are these brackets easy to come by?

Do you think JB Weld would hold the bracket together?

Thanks

Okay JB Weld is starting to crack as well. Does anyone know where to
get a PS pump mount/bracket for a car W/O Air? Probably an expensive
part from the dealer. Haven't been able to find one in two weeks
looking at the junk yards. Any ideas??

Find someone with a TIG welder - round here there are several small
workshops with a welder who would do that sort of job for beer money.
