The VL rack will not fit the early crossmembers - the mounts are in different locations.
If you get the whole lot off the VL, grab the VL crossmember too, and you can replace yours, and use the VL rack that way.
The VL pump mounts on te LH hea

Yep that's how I understand it too. I have a complete setup from a VK Berlina if you're interested. The rack has been reconditioned and is bolted to a K frame that I'll throw in. Includes the rack, pump, reservoir and steering column. Looking for $120
