Post P/S pump bracket spacer hell

yeah, remind me never to take my truck apart when I've had one too many.

While changing the Power Steering pump out of my 69 F-100 I decided to take the mounting bracket off and paint it up pretty. During reassembly I forgot which spacer goes where on the mounting bolts at the water pump. One is about twice as thick as the other... i've come to the conclusion that the fatter one goes on top. Help me out here... (what a moron).

Thanks
a redneck in the big city

When you're completely sober as the judge---if you take the fan belt and put enough tension on it to keep it in the right groove on the bottom pulley and then put it in the ps pump pulley it will be obvious which spacer you will need to use so you can achieve the correct alignment!!!!!!!!!!!!fd
