    I am looking for some pics of the engine compartment of a 89 Shelby Dakota.
    I dismanteled my Dakota a little over 5 yeaars ago and am now trying to get it put back together and I'm having trouble remembering how the power steering pump mounted, so I would like to find some pix of how it is mounted.
    Any help will come with plenty of thanks.

    Thanks for the pic
    ME stupid !!!! didn't take any pics while tearing down , hahahaha
    They do help
    Just for info only. I was cruising the auto wreckers's today and found out that a 1990 dodge ram 250 with a 318 is/or has all the same engine brackets and pullys as well as the smog routing and throttle body carb. Yes I did strip everything I could see that I needed.
    Thanks again for the pix

    I think that I am good at this time. But ya never know haha.
    I will save this for future use.
    I think sometime in the future all of us with Shelby Dakota's should think about getting together someplace. Can you imagine the looks that we could get with a cruise and a string of these cool trucks.
    Will try to stay in touch and will post pix of truck, haha I have been taking pictures while putting it back together. Backwards for sure.
    Thanks again will let ya know if I need any more pix.

    I cruised from my friends house into Richmond last Saturday and we got many looks and that's only two. He has an 83 Plymouth Scamp and I an 82 Rampage. I can imagine what a bunch of Shelby Daks would look like.:thumbsup:
