power steering pump bracket

The bracket that the pump is mounted to is rusted out. Where can I get a new mount bracket? This is the only part of this 95 mariah that is rusted out. Is this common? Any help would be appreciated.

What year, brand and size engine do you have?

Your're pretty lucky, that bracket shows "no longer available" on the mercruiser parts site but I did find one on Ebay.

Hope it works for you.

Wow thanks for all the help but now that I see the picture I believe I have made a mistake in the description of the piece that I need. It seems to be connected to the hydraulics of the outboard. If you are looking at the engine compartment from inside the boat it is on the right far back. There is a metal bracket that holds some sort of hydraulic fluid assembly. The base of this bracket is all rusted and I am afraid it will break and bounce around at speed. I will try and take a picture of it and post it for confirmation. I am sorry I don't know the name of the part. I am new to this stuff.

Sounds like the lift pump reserve tank bracket?

So you mean the fluid for setting the trim? What does that bracket look like. I will know it when I see it. If it is that bracket are they out there and where do I find it?

Is this it?

I think that is it. So I will go take a closer look at mine and compare the hole config. Is this the place to order it? Thank you all so much. I would have never found this.

Hi, the link I sent is just one on line parts supplier, there are a bunch of them. There are some on Ebay too. Good luck.
