My truck is a 78 F150 4x4. The power steering pump has a plastic resourviour and it adjusts by loosening the 3 bolts on the bracket and turning the adjustment screw. The reason I ask is the placement on the power steering bracket for the a/c belt idler pulley. At this time that is my only x factor on making my system work like it was meant too. I was working off of pictures of ones and made a spacer and bought a pulley which is the same diameter as the upper a/c idler pulley. My lower pulley is too far to the passenger side to engage the belt. Trying to figure out why?

Illustration Section 36, Page 26. Shows the correct brackets and the A/C idler pulley that bolts to the P/S pump support bracket.
Did you swap a 460 into this truck? mikeo0o0o0 posted the parts catalog pic for a 1973/79 F100/350 460 compressor and idler pulleys.
