1988 e250 PS bracket

Hi all,
On my way home today the bracket that hold the power steering pump on my ‘88 e250 broke. The metal actually tore. I am looking for a replacement, but am having an issue finding one. The van is a 7.3 IDI diesel. I checked on the truck bracket, but it appears to be different. The van one looks like a horseshoe that bolts to to the pump behind the pulley, while the truck one with the same engine looks like a full circle that bolts behind the pulley.

If anyone has a bracket they are willing to part with or if anybody would have a part number it would be a great help.

thanks

With any degree of luck user NumberDummy will help---he has an amazing library of Ford parts lists he saved from a dealership. He should have the exact part numbers you need.

D8TZ-3A732-D .. P/S Pump Adjusting Bracket / Obsolete

1978/82 E100/350 351W/460 // 1983/87 E250/350 6.9L diesel / 1988/89 E250/350 7.3L diesel. I didn't look after 1989 (1990/2001 parts catalog on microfiche).

NOS PARTS SOURCE in Olathe KS has 1 = 913-220-5746.

RPN PARTS in Erie PA has 3 = 888-864-9305.

GREEN SALES CO. in Cincinnati OH has 3 = 800-543-4959.
