Officially Licensed GM Restoration Part
The 1965-1968 Chevrolet Big Block Power Steering Adjust Bracket refers to a component used in vehicles equipped with power steering systems and big block V8 engines manufactured by Chevrolet during the specified years.
Power steering adjust brackets are part of the power steering pump assembly and are responsible for securing and adjusting the position of the power steering pump within the engine compartment. These brackets allow for proper alignment and tensioning of the power steering pump belt, ensuring efficient operation of the power steering system.
In vehicles equipped with big block V8 engines, such as the Chevrolet 396 and 427 cubic inch engines, the power steering adjust bracket would have been specifically designed to accommodate the larger size and configuration of these engines. The bracket would have been engineered to fit onto the engine block or cylinder head in a specific location, providing a mounting point for the power steering pump and facilitating proper belt alignment.
During the mid-1960s to late 1960s, Chevrolet produced a range of vehicles featuring big block V8 engines, including popular models like the Chevrolet Impala, Chevelle, Camaro, Corvette, and various trucks. Many of these vehicles were offered with power steering as an option, making components like the power steering adjust bracket essential for ensuring the smooth and responsive operation of the power steering system.
For enthusiasts restoring or maintaining classic Chevrolet vehicles from this era, obtaining authentic or reproduction power steering adjust brackets is crucial for maintaining the originality and functionality of the power steering system. These brackets can often be found through specialty automotive parts suppliers, like us.
