WOD GM LS Power Steering Pump & Alternator Relocation Kit
WA01024N
The WOD GM LS High Mount Power Steering Pump and Alternator Relocation Kit moves both accessories higher on the engine to improve suspension clearance and drivetrain packaging in custom LS-powered vehicles. Machined in-house from billet aluminum and engraved with the Wide Open Design logo, this high-mount system is designed for builders who need additional room around front suspension links without raising the engine or sacrificing a low hood line.
By relocating the alternator and power steering pump upward, the kit helps create more usable suspension up travel in rock crawlers, Ultra4 cars, buggies, and custom chassis builds. It is designed around GM LS engines with truck crank pulley spacing and is compatible with the PSC CBR power steering pump and pulley.
Includes:
- (2) Machined Billet Aluminum Relocation Brackets
- Aluminum Spacers
- Complete Mounting Hardware
Note: Alternator, power steering pump, pulley, belt, and accessory components are not listed as included.

FAQ
Why relocate the alternator and power steering pump?
Factory-style low-mounted accessories can interfere with upper suspension links, steering components, and axle movement in high-travel off-road builds. Moving the accessories higher creates additional clearance without requiring the engine to be raised in the chassis.
Will this kit improve suspension up travel?
Yes. Relocating the accessories away from the lower front portion of the engine can provide more room for the axle and suspension links to move upward through their travel.
What power steering pump is this kit designed for?
This kit is designed specifically for a PSC CBR power steering pump and matching pulley. Other pumps may not align correctly or provide the required mounting geometry.
Does this kit fit every GM LS engine?
It is intended for GM LS engines using truck crank pulley spacing, including many 4.8L, 5.3L, 6.0L, and Gen IV VVT applications. Accessory spacing and surrounding component clearance should be verified before ordering.
Can it be used with truck and car intake manifolds?
Yes. The supplied fitment information states that the kit is compatible with both truck and car intake manifold configurations, provided the remaining accessory and chassis clearances are suitable.
What is included with the relocation kit?
The kit includes two machined billet aluminum brackets, the required aluminum spacers, and mounting hardware. The alternator, PSC CBR pump, pulley, belt, and other accessory-drive components are not listed as included.
