steering pump

Hey 'yall...I installed a rebuilt steering pump on my '99. I bolted it up to the vacuum pump mount without installing the spacers, I think I lost those in the 4 ft. of snow in the front yard. The hydroboost system works, but I've got zero reading on my vac. gauge. Does anyone know what happened ?
I must have pushed or broken something in the vac. pump. I'm going to pull it apart to see it I can fix it. Or I'll replace it. Anyone know how much $$$$ for a vac. pump ?
What I really need to know is how thick are the pump spacers, seems like they were about 3/8". I know that the '01's don't have them, don't know about the '00's. My Haynes manual cautions about installing w/o. I read that after the fact
