Well, I know they're both very easy to remove!

Fitting the power steering pump and aircon compressor will take very little time (assuming there's room for them in the engine bay), but getting them to mate with the Mitsubishi steering rack and aircon system will almost certainly require custom piping. Then you've got to squeeze an aircon condenser in somewhere (if it doesn't have one already).

Basically, it's going to be a nightmare.

On the other hand, it might be easier for you to source a Mitsubishi power steering pump and aircon compressor and have custom brackets made to fit them on to the SR. Then you should be able to use the standard Mitsubishi piping.

You should probably try the Mitsubishi Van forums to locate those parts
