Hi everyone. So, I just received my KRC power steering pump kit from f5 and went to install it on my Gen 2 Coyote.

First, I installed the bracket. How can anyone install it wrong? I took the 3 90mm bolts with washers and the spacers and installed it per the instructions. The larger spacer goes on the bottom inside and the two smaller spaces go on the top and the outside. easy. Then I installed the KRC pump to the bracket and this is where I am finding trouble. When I snug the pump up to the bracket, I cannot rotate the pump close to the pulley in order to get the belt on, because the pump is interfering with a dimple on the engine (see pics) I cannot rotate the pump like the instructions say at all because of that dimple on the engine. I asked Paul, and he sent me a picture of hi (the last picture), and his is no where near the dimple...so he could rotate his freely. WHy would mine be so deep??? I am at a loss.

Anyone have any idea what I am doing wrong?

I have the same configuration, and as Edward has said, no fitment issues. There were no instructions with the KRC kit, so I tried different configurations of the bolts and spacers until I found what I believed to be the correct combination. That is about the only thing that could be wrong is the spacers.

Good luck, only so many combinations to try.

I think there is only 1 way to actually put the spacers in....there is one longer and it goes in the bottom right hand sand. My bracket is installed correctly...and when I bolt on the pump it hits the motor.

I took a few pictures of my install for reference. Not sure if they will help, hopefully this will show something different.

@austingoblue did you ever figure it out? I'm having the exact same issue. Can't find a way to rotate the pump at all. In my case the belt also just seems way too short. How did you resolve your issue?
