Hi guys,
So the stated pulley - of the power steering pump - is misaligned on my 1991 240 with 188k. Makes the new belt squeal.

The FAQ section says get the bracket from a dealer, the ipd site says get the bushings. Which one is it? Both? I'd like to hear your opinions.

If it makes a difference: the pulley is tilted 'down', i.e. the bending is consistent with the force from the belt.

I would like to avoid getting unnecessary parts, but also having to do this more than once - tons of fun as it may be.

Regarding the procedure: any secret BB wisdom for this? Do I need to drain the fluid or can I just juggle it somehow without? I don't really know where the bushings would go, either, I figure the bracket I would see once I get the bolts loosened.

Again, thanks for your suggestions.
Boerre
