[Shotimes] '95 Power Steering Pump Pulley

[Wayne King]

Thanks for your responses regarding my '95 SHO Power Steering Pump Pulley.
   
  It appears that all the '89 through '95 ATX and MTX use the same power steering pump, but the mounting bracket and pulley differ.
   
  My 1995 ATX has only one belt that drives the alternator, air conditioning, and powersteering pump. 
  On the other hand, my 1990 MTX has two belts; one drives the air and alternator, a second narrower belt drives the power steering pump, and hence a narrower pulley.
  I'm not sure if the pulley differs by model year, or is it ATX vs. MTX difference.  Ford lists them as all the same, but that is clearly not the case.
  ...still searching for a '95 ATX power steering pump pulley.

  I changed my 93 ATX PS pump and used one from a 92 MTX. I think all 3.0 and 
3.2 use the same pulley and pump. The ATX has a different pump mounting 
bracket.
