Default Help with vacuum pump relocation issue

I am getting ready to purchase and install an OR-Fab bumper. I have to do the vacuum pump relocation. I am also installing the S-Pod, as the Daystar switch panel I purchased warped in the summer heat and won't stay in place. The S-pod mounts where the OR-Fab Relocation bracket goes. The Teraflex relocation kit mounts to the brake booster, but my synergy air compressor mount is already there. I don't know what to do with the vacuum pump now. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I know with JCR bumpers, their bracket simply rotates the vacuum pump in place to make everything fit. I'm not sure if that would work with the Or-Fab bumper but it might be worth looking into.

Unfortunately, no. I have the OR-Fab vacuum pump relocation bracket and the Synergy AC bracket but doing the DIY SPOD.

Evo mfg. has one that mounts at the same location as your front sway bar. I have an OR fab and am going to switch to Evo so I can mount an arb twin there...

I made my own mount where the horn was. I made a mount, and out dual horns behind the grill. This will only work with a manual, because the trans cooler gets in the way of the horn on an automatic.

Default Thank you

Thank you for all your help. I looked into the jcr and evo as well as rock hard. I will be going with the Evo relocation kit. According to OR Fab either the Evo or Rock Hard kits will work just fine. Again, thank you, your help was much appreciated.
