I bought a kit from one of our list vendors that was very reasonable priced. Seems as though it included a couple of gaskets or o-rings and new replaceable vanes. I remember being a bit unsure of whether i got the vanes back in correctly and the pump did not function properly. I also went the route of trying a local FLAPS that shall remain nameless. After 5 pumps in 18 mos. I insisted on getting my $ back . Got a good used OEM pump from the parts yard and no problems since.

Is there such a thing? I find I have 5 power steering pumps and they?
are all crap! I'm pretty fair with mechanical things, and have rebuilt?
things that supposedly couldn't be rebuilt or repaired. Someone said?
"You can't" and that was all the challenge it took. But it's nice not to?
have to re-invent the wheel.?
?
?If anyone knows of pump parts sources I sure would like to hear from you.?

Thanks,?
