3FE Power Steering Pump On A 1F

[cruiserkreutz]

I'm planning out my FJ60 power steering conversion on my 1974 FJ40. It has a 1969 1F engine that was swapped in at some point by a previous owner.
I'm considering putting in a 3FE pump and bracket from an 80 series. This will mount it on the right side of the engine getting it away from the alternator and air cleaner.
I'm curious who has done this and if there was any issues. I've got a double harmonic balancer pulley that will hopefully line up with the pump pulley.
Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Here are some pictures of the mount and pump setup I got off the internet.

I've done this several times and it works great. I've posted about it before, do a search and it should come up. You'll need a double groove water pump pulley as well.

I did a search and only got this thread:

anyone add fj60 power steering to a 1F FJ40?

Hey all, Been working on changing out axles, springs and will be adding power steering to a 72 fj40 with a 1F and a sprung over 75 front axle with disc brakes and hi steer. I already have a 60 power steering box. I have searched and read plenty of threads on adding 60s series to a 2f, but...

Unfortunately not a lot of information in there.

Maybe your posts are buried in a build thread somewhere.

Did you have to have custom hoses made, or do stock FJ80 hoseswork? I'll be using an 1986 FJ60 box.

Isn't the issue with a '69 head is it is missing the lower threaded hole for mounting? You'll catch the two upper holes that are there for the engine lifting hook, but I wouldn't personally trust them for a PS pump mounting without some other external means of adding rigidity. I think the 1.5F heads have the three holes required for this to work right....

I’m thinking about doing similar to what the OP was this spring but with a few differences and would love to have someone double check my thinking before I get into it.

I also have a ‘74 but with original 1.5F and have double pulley harmonic balancer and water pump. My head has the holes that should allow the PS pump bracket to mount on the right. This will allow me to leave my alternator and the factory air cleaner in place on the left. I’ll be using a mini truck PS box that I already have sitting in my garage with matching pedestal.

So with all of that said I’m thinking I’ll use the 3FE PS pump and bracket from a FJ62. I can source the PS pump and pulley from city racer and I’m sure I can find the brackets with a wanted ad on here. Return / low pressure hose should be easy leaving me just to source a high pressure hose which I’m sure I can figure out eventually and a belt.

Does anyone see any reason this setup would not work?

what is different about what you described? I've built and posted the exact setup you're describing many times (on F and non-US 2F, or 2F into pre-75 trucks) and it works really well.
I'd recommend a few more $ and get the new OEM while you still can, get the pulley from City Racer
We have the hose adapter fittings and high-pressure hose parts, and the proper belt for that setup in stock here.

Just a different PS box than the OP (mainly due to the fact that I already have it). But thats great to know. I’ll reach out to you when the time comes on the hose and belt.

I’ve read a bunch of posts about using this pump and normal mini truck conversions, just wanted to get some verification what I was planning in my head was going to work in reality before buying stuff and attempting to put it all together.

We also carry the new OEM pumps and all the stock replacement 40 TRE and linkage parts if you need to refresh your steeering while you're there.

I use the 3FE PS pump and an OEM FJ40 PS box. I used the PS tubes from the FJ62, the HP tube needed modified with different hoses that I had done at the hydraulic shop in Wilmington. The mini truck PS box has the same internals as the FJ40 box so it will work well with the 3FE pump also.
