Is the only way to order parts from Mark's Off Road to get him on the phone? And, looks like he has specific hours for answering calls?

I need the bracket that bolts to the back of the pump, does Georg have that?
Looks like you may have to fabricate that bracket.I need the bracket that bolts to the back of the pump, does Georg have that?
You could try Mark's bracket and see if you like that better. I can't tell from the picture if the PS box would interfere.I guess I've already got that bracket, just never been really happy with it.

I tried Mark's mount, pump bumped into the Scout box. Mark made me a taller mount, for free, still won't fit. So it'll probably work on other 55s, just not mine.You could try Mark's bracket and see if you like that better. I can't tell from the picture if the PS box would interfere.
Or @Steamer 's customization.
The only other option besides fabricating from scratch would be a BTB/MAF PS pump mount. It uses the head bolts, but it works. I had one on a 75 2F.I tried Mark's mount, pump bumped into the Scout box.

It looks like he added a plate that attaches to a Georg bracket. Maybe to space it forward a little. Maybe he'll provide details.landcrusher909's bracket is probably home-made?
Yes I used the bracket I got from @orangefj45 Valley Hybrids and found a scrap yard that had a few Volvo's I used the factory Vovlo bracket that came with the pump drilled a few holes and spaced it out to line up the belt. Here is a picture of the back of the pump you can see the Volvo factory bracket. This was 9 years ago and no leaks or issuesIt looks like he added a plate that attaches to a Georg bracket.

Just wanted you to know my FJ40 is also a 1973I'm installing PS on my '73 40 and looking for a vendor source for a PS pump bracket. I've already relocated the alternator to passenger side and plan to use a Toyota pump (from an 80s Tercel wagon.) I've got an F motor and would like to retain the stock air cleaner. Anyone know who might still make a suitable bracket?
Is that the one that uses the two front head bolts?@Pighead do you mean a P.S. pump bracket like this? I`ll get a better pic tomorrow.
