I just realized that mine is missing and I've been using a carriage bolt and a 2 inch thick stack of washers to hold on the power steering pump. Amazingly this seems to have been working for years.

I got a pivot bolt off ebay but I have no idea how to get the little sleeve that goes behind the pump. I don't even know what the thing is called so I could order it from somewhere.

Any ideas?

 

Go to a breakers. Its about pocket sized so probably free.

 

The spacer/bushing is considered part of the bracket, as shown here: BRACKET, VANE PUMP for Mazda Miata (1998 - 2005). #NC1132609A (part number 32-680).

Here's one for sale: http://www.ebay.com/itm/94-95-96-97-...1VoVDj&vxp=mtr

 

Nevermind. On the off chance that my pack rat habits paid off, I went searching through a bunch of old parts and found something that looked right. I test fitted it and... it is the missing sleeve from the power steering bracket.

Everything is hooked up again.
