M52TU Swap help!

[Ari Ehu]

Hey guys! I am currently doing the m52tu swap. I have put my e34 oil pan on it and the power steering pump inlet hose fouls it. What are my best options of getting around this? Also, wondering if a e38 ms42 loom will work and reach the proper ECU location correctly. Any help is appreciated. Cheers

running into the same issue . you need a late model m54 power steering pump. the return hose is more at an angle and clears it . gotta get it used with the brackets. it is the one with the aluminum bracket on the front like this one.https://www.ebay.com/itm/03-06-BMW-E...Condition=3000

edit: just looked into it again and these guys don't have a problem with it even though the have the one with the metal bracket. https://www.flickr.com/photos/blackk...i/35753926440/

Thanks for the reply man. What engine and model BMW did this pump come from? And will I need the bracket with it?

it's off an E39. yes , the brackets are needed because that is what different between them. pump are the same, brackets are different. Just bought a used one en ebay for $45

Realoem is very useful.

Not sure I believe the weight figure, tho!

Do you have a part number for the bracket?
