This bracket securely mounts the power steering pump to the lower position on the TD42 engine block. Over years of use, the original cast bracket is subjected to constant engine vibration and stress, which can lead to metal fatigue and cracking. For any 4x4 owner, especially those who frequently tackle tough terrain, replacing a fatigued or cracked bracket is crucial to prevent a sudden failure on the road or trail.
What happens to the vehicle if this problem is ignored? A complete failure of this bracket will cause the power steering pump to break away from the engine, throwing the drive belt. This results in an immediate and total loss of power steering assistance, making the vehicle extremely difficult to control, especially at low speeds. Ignoring this can leave you stranded and potentially cause further damage to belts and pulleys.
