The power steering rack bracket doesn't seem to be the right size... what is the best path forward to properly secure the rack?

Your rack looks different than what I have.

Yours is wider than the typical rack at the location where the mounting boss is. Based on what I see of your rack, you likely don't need the extra bracket at all. The bracket is supposed to help prevent cracks in the welds on the mounting boss.

I agree with Papa. Call FFR. I bet they'll confirm that you don't need the safety bracket.
