The bracket I purchased and used to hold the Saginaw PS pump allowed you to keep the smog pump installed, but the bracket was held down using the two front driver's side head bolts. I didn't like that, so I removed it and reinstalled the OEM PS pump.
I may be dense here, but what is wrong with using two of the head bolts? I can't think of any issues with this myself and mounted my power steering pump on my FJ40 Saginaw conversion with two head bolts with no problems.

@Tools R Us , now you have me wanting a FZJ80 box! Maybe I need to go find one
So would swapping out a good 62 gearbox with an 80 still be an improvement in steering feel, or just better able to handle more turning force? If yes, I might have to keep my eyes open for a junked 80 once I fix my linkage.

... Hopefully soon I can get rid of those damn spring loaded ends ...
So the answer is unless you upgrade your pump, you probably will have spend some money on a steering that is barely better than stock...
And, if you upgrade your pump, the stock box works better too...
Which still does not produce as much pressure as a good sag pump.
I'm a big fan of toyota and all, but their PS pumps rival Fords.
