relocating power steering pump

how hard would it be to relocate the power steering pump to where the air conditoning pump is. I wanna keep the power steering, but i want to have straight pipes coming from my fmic. What would be involved for this relocation?

the car is RHD if it matters.

thank you

You'd need to fabricate some brackets, so it all depends on your skill level. I relocated my PS pump to the shed, it was pretty easy, I definetely recommend it!

lmao, thats a good idea.

I was considering it for a long time. I'm ditching my AC, but plan on 235-255 front tires, and if you ever spin out, you'll never catch it w/o PS. It'll break your wrists.

Speaking of shed, this is advice from seth in his infinite cym glory lol.
