Power Steering Pump Bracket Help

So they are different then??...

The 4EFE one pictured above is totally different.

My mistake, thought you were asking about the mounting bracket for the pump, not the adjuster bracket. The adjuster bracket is specific to the EP82/EP91 4E-FTE only.

Can one get away without this? I have lost mine and have tightened it up with the large bolt and it seems fine.

Was able to grab a few pics to explain things better, PAS was amongst them.

There's two brackets that hold the PAS pump on, main mount at the top is a C-shaped bracket which is the same for turbo and non-turbo engines. You can see the three bolt holes here:

The bottom bracket differs though, on the 4EFE it's a small version:

Whilst on the 4EFTE it's far more pronounced:

Because the position changes you may need to grab different pipes to match. Here's a few pics of how the high and low pressure sides sit on an EP82 GT (with ABS):

You should compare them with your own to see if it's a concern or not. Also take a few pics of the pump you have as it could be different from the 4EFTE and need added to your list.

Also, because the tensioner on the lower bracket is often damaged you should be picky when sourcing a used one. The thread can get bent/damaged when overtightened.
