Default LQ4 power steering delete????

Long story short but I need to get a delete pulley or option of removing the power steering pulley/pump on my LQ4 because I'm going with a manual rack.
I swear I've seen that they make them but can't find them anywhere. Please help

We just cut it off on the band saw, and use the remaining alt mt.
If you are going to use a car intake, you may also have to move the top idler pulley over.

If you use the idler relocation kit for truck accessory drive, I think you could just eliminate the pump and go with a shorter belt. LSbrackets.com has the kit on sale for $30 plus shipping. Then you have the option to use a car or truck intake.

I forgot to say I'm still using the truck intake and all the other truck accessories. I'm staring at the front of it and i show it has one idler pulley and another one that is the tensioner pulley at the top.

I'll check out the LSbrackets website, thanks!
