Power Steering Pump: Service and Repair
Pulley
Removal
REMOVAL
1. Remove power steering pump from engine.
CAUTION: Do not hammer on power steering pump pulley or shaft to remove power steering pump pulley. This will damage pulley and
power steering pump.
2. Mount Puller, Special Tool C-4333, or equivalent on power steering pump pulley hub. Mount Puller (with power steering pump) in a vise as
shown (Figure 1); Do not mount pump in vise. Placing Puller in vise will keep shaft of pump from turning while removing pulley and help keep
tension on Puller and pulley hub.

3. Tighten Puller and remove pulley from shaft of power steering pump.
NOTE: Inspect pulley. Replace if pulley is bent, cracked, or loose.
Installation
INSTALLATION
1. Place pulley hub over pump shaft.
NOTE: Later build pumps feature a shaft with internal threads that are not as deep as earlier production, thus requiring a stack of
washers, approximately 13 mm (0.5 in.) thickness, placed over the pulley before mounting Installer C-4063C on the pump (Figure 1). To
know if a replacement pump requires the stack of washers, measure the depth of the shaft hole. A later build pump will have a depth of
20 mm (0.78 in.) while an earlier build pump will have a depth of 32 mm (1.25 in.).
2. As necessary (see above note), place a stack of washers approximately 13 mm (0.5 in.) thickness over pulley hub (Figure 1).
