New Pulley Installation on a new Power Steering Pump

[rusted nuts]

Yes, but the important part is if "E" understood the innuendo. Please have him read this thread and report back! We need to make sure today's youth are fully prepared for life!

Found out the hard way that the pump has to be mounted in the bracket before the pulley is pressed on. Stupid design. Could have had an access hole to rotate for the bolts. Stupid error on my part but the thought of if the pump ever fails, you cant just remove it is what pissez me off.

Yeah, that's a very annoying part of the design. Especially when it's in a van.

Forgot to ask.....do these press on til they are flush with the end of the shaft? I have nothing to compare it to.

Thanks again fellas!

It'll stop when it's finished going on.
