    I need to buy power steering pump and etc. to fit my 5.0 with serpentine belt. I don't want to reinvent the wheel, so if I can figure out when they started to put the serpentine belt on the 5.0, I should be able to buy my stuff from O'Reilly using that year model.

    I looked the parts up as 88, so I guess those parts should be fine.

    I just wanted to double-check to make sure I wasn't looking at a v-belt pump. Doesn't come with a pulley, as far as I can tell. So may have to hit the junk yards looking for one. Should be an easy thing to find.
