Saginaw powersteering pump out of a '91 Ford van, much better than the stock pump the Broncos came with. I'll cover the installation of the new pump here. Paid $35 buck for the pump and bracket from the yard. Make sure to get all the bolts.

I used my u-joint press to push the plate down so I could get the retaining ring on, the pressure from the spring behind it makes it impossible to do by hand. A regular c-clamp would work just as well. Once the snap ring is in place, the rebuild is complete. Put your resevoir back on and your good to go.

So here they are side by side, the most noticeable difference is the C2 resevoir is much smaller than the Saginaw, and it's also made of plastic. The C2 uses a plastic pulley and the Saginaw's is steel. What were they thinking. In addition, the bolts used to secure the A/C compressor to the bracket are larger in diameter so it requires some drilling.
