Hey guys just real quick question me and my father have been doing our 205 swap into my 185 and its finally coming to a close slowly just a few more things to figure out. One in which is the 205 water pump. I have been looking everywhere for pictures on where people place there water pump. Does anyone have any pictures or help on where would be the best place to put this?? any help would be great full!

If your 185 is a 92 you have all [or all but 1?] of the bolt holes to mount it on the front of the LH frame rail [factory location].
But you'll need either the RC/CS/Grp A bracket or you'll have to mod the 205 one. Or you could make your own bracket.

If you don't have a 92 there is still 1 of the studs and 1 bolt hole [for the 185 mount] IIRC.
I feel like it's the best place for it, but there's lots of other places.
