Pajero 1993 power steering adjustment

Post by glenhorner »

I have a noisey power steering belt and can not work out how to adjust the belt. I can see what I think is the pivot bolt and the swing arm bolt (behind the pulley) and have loosened them both. But the power steering pump is still fixed firm (I can't move it).

Is there another bolt or something that I can't see that is stopping it form moving??

Please help, this is driving me nuts

Thanks

There might be a second pivot bolt at the rear (i.e. two separate bolts, rather than one continuous.) Have a look?

Yep, there's another 14mm head bolt at the rear of the pump. If you line the pulley up with the 2 front bolts you can get a socket onto them nice and easy.

Thanks, There is 2 bolts behind the pulley and the holes in the pulley need to be lined up exactly to be able to get a socket on both. The 3rd bolt must be part of the pump because it didn't do anything.

All fixed, thanks
