I was working on resealing my steering box earlier and had a ring near the piston assembly snap. I was wondering if anyone knew what to do or how I should proceed from here. Thank you! :)

I made some crude drawings of how my belts are routed but I left out the power steering as that is not changing anything. I can make some better drawings later that illustrate this much better but the alternator belt, with how it’s been routed, rubs on the old water pump a little bit. The issue...

So far everything that I have found has been a different design. I got one a couple weeks ago that I have yet to return from rock auto but it was completely different.

I have owned my 65 Imperial for only a couple of years now but I have run into an issue with finding a new water pump. It has the stock 413 with a/c. When I purchased the car, the a/c was disconnected and the belt just ran from the alternator underneath the water pump rather than from the...
