[QUOTE="Robert M, post: 16512463, member: 9628"] I believe VMP offers a kit to mount the 2013/14 pump on the frame rail ahead of the drivers side wheel/tire area? Here is the 2013/14 GT500 pump installed with all 2013/14 GT500 hardware and fasteners in my 2008. Note there is plenty of room below the oem 2007-2010 P/S reservoir..... [ATTACH=full]1669282[/ATTACH] On the P/S pressure mod that I did, I first marked everything in place with a Sharpie that I envisioned was needed to be modded, then I removed the steel P/S pressure line from the bottom of the pump and from the rack and removed it from my car, then as shown in the picture below I cut the steel line after its bend where it came out of the pump and I had a local hyd. hose shop solder a high pressure threaded fitting onto the end of my original steel line........Then I had that same shop made me a high pressure hyd. hose with a female flared end that would attach to the male end they soldered on the end of my oem line....... [ATTACH=full]1669283[/ATTACH] Then I had the local hyd. hose shop also solder the same male fitting on the end of the steel line coming from the rack into the engine compartment and once I got my custom hose length correct, I brought it to them and the crimped a female hyd. end on and it was ready to install "around" the 2013/14 pump. [ATTACH=full]1669284[/ATTACH] It has been in place for a number of years with no leaks, but I will say that the fitting (male and female) that they installed on the steel line ends and hose ends, as well as the hose itself are rated for PSI well beyond the GT500 P/S system. .......and here is a picture of the steel P/S pressure line before the mod.......As I said, it is right in the middle of the steel P/S pressure line path......Literally in the middle of the bracket...... [ATTACH=full]1669285[/ATTACH] Just to keep "correct" parts for my Super Snake, I also bought a new oem P/S pressure line from Ford (while it is available), to keep stored away just in case I sell my car and "correct original" needs to be in place........Then I will have a "Back to stock" sale......
