How can I buy one if this pump?

Nice work im replacing my 02 4runner rack and pinion after an attempt at rebuilding it and still having leaks around the bellows i figure the housing for the rack is bent due to the sway bar links not being installed after a lift was installed my question is what is a good brand vacuum tester for rack and pinions to vacuum test the seals thanks for your help

Best guide i have ever seen thanks man🫡

Thank you so much for this so detailed explanation. I was able to do this replacement on a 2014 GMC Yukon following this video. A couple of things I noticed along the way, which are not mentioned here though: 1. The new rack and pinion comes with two unopened rubber seals for the connection lines to the steering wheel fluid. However, they can easily be mistaken with temporary seals to be discarded. If so, then the fluid lines do not seal at all. The rubber seals have to be opened up a bit before placing them in their positions again. 2. Steering after the installation is harder. It appears that there is something called pre-load adjustment with a bolt located on the base of the pinion, in order to loosen up the steering movement. In my case, even though I counted the turns of the tie rods, the pinion shaft did not properly aligned with the clamp hole. Since the instructions clearly state not to move the steering wheel, as it is already centered, I had to move the pinion shaft to make it align and have the clamp fall in place, and then re-adjust the tie rods, as the wheels were now off center.

This video could use more details on Vacuum Bleeding, since this is the point of the video.

using ATF will get the air out of the system better than clear PSF check your vehicle manual for specifics. If you have to do this replace the cooler and fluid lines as they wear out and rust.

Very informative video, but you failed to mention where the vacuum is connected.

5:35 timeframe, what did you use to clean the hydraulic lines?

Hi I have a 2005 Yukon SLT 5.3L automatic with 218,000 miles. All stock equipped. Doesn't make any noise of any kind, that's abnormal. Well kept and daily driver. I drove it out on the highway for 300 miles and when I exited Interstate it was in manual steering mode...stiff to turn like it had no pump at all. And the brakes were not boosted either. It's not the belt or fluids of steering or brakes...all good. No leaks. No codes. No smells. No noises of pump failure. It only does it at low rpms when coming to stop, under 700 rpm. It works fine when above that. And the brakes are unboosted when it does it also, but work. This is the pump I assume? Remove and replace eh? Suggestions of what pump brands you had success with? I'm eyeballing the O'Reily $72 special. Thank you!

What will happen if you install it right away? Skipping to center rack

How you ever seen one that the power steering works turning left but doesn't turning right. It's a 2004 cheverlet 1500 4 wheel drive. I have replaced the pump, but it didn't change anything.

What happens if the steering wheel gets moved in this process? Truck I bought had a crooked steering wheel, I figured it just needed an alignment but the shop said someone had replaced the rack and probably didn’t do it right which is why the steering wheel is the way it is. So how would I go about correcting that?

Skip YT ads go to the end of any video then restart ❤❤❤

How come this channel only has 3K subs? anyway your video is very helpful to us thanks a lot

At 2:55 it looks like the frame is cracked

If there is air getting into the system but no fluid coming out, how do you find this type of leak?

Installed new pump and flushed whatever fluid was in the rack and cooler. BLED system like I had done before, wheels in the air, engine turned off, and turn steering wheel left and right while monitoring the fluid level in the power steering pump reservoir. Drove the truck to get a wheel aligment (at Firesxxxx) and then drove off to test their work. Got on the freeway and noticed that the steering wheel was NOT centered while driving straight on the freeway. The truck was also pulling slightly to the right. Drove back to Fxxxstone and explained to them what was going on. Different tech was assigned to my truck. The tech put the truck on the lift, and began to make the adjustments without first driving the truck. When he finished making the adjustments, he drove off the lot to go test his own work. The tech came back puzzled and said that when he drove off the parking lot and made a right to get on to the street, he noticed that the steering wheel did not go back to center, instead the steering wheel was way off center. He continued to state that he proceeded to drive on to the freeway and after driving for a good 1/4 mile he noticed that the steering wheel went back to center. He didn't know what was causing this. I had never noticed what the 2nd tech noticed when I first test drove mytruck. My initial complaint was only about the steering wheel not returning to the center and the truck pulling slightly to the right while driving on the freeway. I left Firexxxxx and it was then that I noticed what the tech was talking about. The steering wheel does not behave the way it should. Sometimes the steering wheel stays centered but for sure, if you make any sharp turns and then hold the steering wheel to drive straight, the steering wheel does not return to its center position. Do I have a bad rack and pinion? Did the alignment shop make things worse the second time.

Anything special to do to install the IAC motor ?? Does it need to be “clocked” ?

Thank you. Going to do mine

Im no mech. but sounds like the return line to the reservoir need disconnected in order to flush out the total contaminated fluid, not "to disconnect the return line to the pump after filling it with new fluid".. Think about what was said in the vid because old fluid is in the pump to & thru the LP LINE.. So, it sound like a waist of new fluid in the new reservoir... IM JUST SAYING🤷🏾‍♂️

As much as I love this videos informative guide, My wallet hurts seeing this having realized what I need to do to fix my current leaking steering box. Mechanic:$$$-$$$$. Myself: a weekend full of bad words and still $$$ in parts.

How did you come up with the 1 and 5/8 inch turn?

Loved.

Very helpful !!

How many joules per inch?

Buen vídeo

This shows me i need to take mine to a mechanic 😂

I have a question?

Love the narrator and the coordination this video was so easy to follow thank you

That was too easy. I would love to see a challenging replacement like a GEN 1 4WD Colorado where you have to move the front differential.

How do I try to start the engine without the engine starting?

Fkn terrible video for diy. He doesn't even describe with his wild eyes where to hook up the vacuum to the pump or even show it being done lame

MADE IN CHINA Tennessee lol😂

Thank you guys for making this video. I see that no one has commented but this video was very professional and well done. Now I’m going to try and press on my Power Steering Pump Pulley on a 2000 Doge Grand Caravan with the 3.3 engine.

excellent video

I have a 2002 Toyota Sequoia limited n my steering wheel went out 😮 don't know what to do

Your website link isn’t working

Thx

Cant you just replace. The seals

Excelente video 👍🏾 Gracias

Thank you thank you so much!

Nice video! The PS pump on my 2012 is leaking and I thought replacing it would be way more involved.

sadly, your company no longer have replacement rack for my 95 Civic. Do you have a recommendation for a high quality brand?

So if you mess up with reinstalling this part how much would a car mechanic charge you to fix it? Would suck if you relize the steering wheel is worst after putting new rack & pin on and have to have it towed. luckily for me I have triple A so i would get free towing.

Am a steering engineer by profession I work and repair all kinds of steering pump and racks for all kinds of cars..

Oh god ,a ton of work

When you pull vacuum from the reservoir why does no fluid come out of it?

I recently had my electric rack and pinion repaired, but now my steering feels extremely stiff. What should I do?
