Mystery Bracket
I'm disappointed I can't remember what this bracket is to. I didn't plan on the truck being apart for 18 months. Next time things will be a bit better labeled and organized. This is the last of a few dumb questions I've had while putting this truck back together that have wasted too much time. I should be driving my truck already!!! Thanks for any help.

Well so far over 120 people have looked at it and nobody knows for sure. Maybe it's for the smog pump which is out in the back 40 rusting, or maybe it's for the A/C which I haven't finished rebuilding and installing. But now I'm wondering if came on the 400 I bought for the crank and rods and the bracket got put into the pile of parts for the bead blaster I didn't pull the engine, so I don't know if it came out of a car or truck. So maybe it's not for a truck at all, and since the truck is almost back together and I don't see a need for it, I'm not going to worry about it. Thanks for all your time and input.

My apologies to FMC400. It is for the a/c. It goes between the power steering and a/c compressor. Don't know why it was so obvious today and not all the other times I spent looking for a place to mount it.
