I have no idea if that pump and bracket would bolt onto a 235ci. Sorry. | | | | Joined: Sep 2011 Posts: 2,917 'Bolter | 'Bolter Joined: Sep 2011 Posts: 2,917 | So much is going on right now that work on the truck has slowed down. The good news is I recently got my power steering pump, hoses, and gearbox installed. It seems to work great but I have not driven the truck. I need to hook up and bleed all of my brake lines.

I HATE brake fluid. I installed a brake bias on the rear line so I can fine tune things. | | | | Joined: Feb 2019 Posts: 4,100 AD Addict & Tinkerer | AD Addict & Tinkerer Joined: Feb 2019 Posts: 4,100 | "It is my privilege to announce another Completed Journal by our esteemed community member, Jay "Lugnutz" Altemus.
