Looking for hydraulic pump mount

Looking for hydraulic pump mount for belt driven vickers pump, the mount has a lever which slides the pump to either bring tension to belts or remove tension. Not sure what the technical name for this thing is but I have seen it in action with belt driven vickers pumps with a electric clutch.

Can anyone help me out? You got one to sell or maybe a good picture I could fab one off of?

I'm located in Juneau,

Thanks,

I've got something like this in an abandoned pump on a boat that I just bought. Not sure what kind of pump it is, but I know it's not a vickers. Might consider putting this ad in the gear and boat section though. PM me here if you're interested in the mount I've got. I can send pics to your smartphone tomorrow if you want.

I had that exact setup but rebuilt it for a waterpump. The handle is original and the slide is all new. I can post a picture if it helps

I think this is what your talking about. I have been trying to figure out a good way to use this as my emergency bilge pump (assuming i can clean it up). I feel like I must be missing something, it seems that engaging the pump while the main is running is a good way to loose a finger. Any mounting advice??

Lone eagle, I'm assuming that the way the pump is mounted that you don't routinely disengage the pump while the motor is still turning.

The pump runs raw water to the gearbox heat exchanger and washdown hose, the only time I disengage is to change alternator belt or pump belt.
