HOW TO REPLACE Jeep POWER STEERING PUMP // Jeep Wrangler JK 3.6L

[@DavisBoysWyo]

Great video! I ended up going in through the top which also worked great. Popped the air filter assembly and it was really accessible. I’m NOT a mechanic and this whole job took about 2.5 hrs for me with stops to watch this video lol. Thanks!

[@jamienorthey4185]

Hey thanks, great vid and even though you warned me, I still smashed my hand taking off the line :-). Took me 2.5 hours just like you suggested. For those with stock plastic fender inners, I just took off the front 4 plastic fasteners and bent it back. Really appreciate the detailed procedure, awesome job.

[@JDCarsChannel]

Jamie, I'm glad you found the video helpful! I hope your hand is alright 😅 Thanks for the tips for those with stock fenders!!

[@lifted8464]

Thanks fer the video, I was literally stranded in the middle of nowhere, so I had to do this on the side of the road. Really glad ya made it. Thanks a lot, stay safe

[@mjohnston505]

I have the same year/model Jeep and I’m experiencing the exact same symptoms. Thanks for posting the video as I will definitely use it.

[@263rocker1]

I have the exact same issue with my 15 JK. Long arm suspension with 35" tires. Bought the exact same pump before finding this video so really glad I saw this. Thanks for the help man and letting me know I can do it myself!

[@JDCarsChannel]

Thanks for the comment Dakota! I hope your repair went smoothly

[@joeawood87]

Great video! Glad you made this, because my pump went out yesterday and I just got my new pump today. Looks like a pretty simple job.

[@appleguy1986]

Yes indeed, this video was needed. I have to swap out my pump due to failure. thanks!

[@JDCarsChannel]

Glad it was helpful! Best of luck!

[@zachtaylor397]

Thanks for the lengthy diagnosis, been looking for that across KZbin just what i needed

[@JDCarsChannel]

[@darinoldham3889]

I have to do this job for a friend of min and this is extreamly helpfull! Thanks for the video!

[@danmulkiewicz5515]

Nice vid.Thanks for taking the time to document this. You're right. No decent videos until yours.

[@urqed5305]

Great video! Funny and informative, it helped me in changing the ps pump on my 2012. I too made a blood sacrifice when loosening the high pressure line as well!

[@JDCarsChannel]

Hahaha! I'm glad you got a kick out of it and found it useful. Hopefully not too big of a sacrifice 😂

[@urqed5305]

Is but a flesh wound!

[@zerolimitsoffroad6346]

Pretty sure this is next on our jeep. Great video man. Thanks for posting!

[@egledr]

Solid guide. This helped quite a bit. Thanks a ton.

[@JDCarsChannel]

Glad it helped!

[@jamesm8152]

Thanks man. Just what I needed!

[@rickswain4137]

Awesome vid man. Just ordered my pump (old one squeeling like a banshee, can here it over the radio). Be tearing into it in a couple days (2012 Gecko JKU), and really didnt know where to begin.

[@JDCarsChannel]

Hell yeah man! I hope it all went well for you 👊🏼

[@Jay-sz5dt]

Great job JD cars! I’m thinking about buying mustang GT for summer since I sold my Jeep! Awesome video and awesome skill :)

[@JDCarsChannel]

That would be a fun summer project!

[@tracejames502]

Exactly what I needed thank you!

[@JDCarsChannel]

Glad to be of help brotha!

[@pierrepoitras1798]

Great video dude. Thank you

[@johnfeeney1590]

I just put the belt on the pulley first then I seated the back bolt bottom bolt the frt bolt. Hand tightened then down and the tighted. No problem at all and didn’t use the tensioner

[@Zombielunchbox]

Thanks a ton bud! Went wheeling yesterday and they pump went out lol

[@JDCarsChannel]

Glad to help man! You'll be back out wheeling in no time 🤟

[@SSP69LV]

This is the best way for sure! Thanks for posting!

[@JDCarsChannel]

You bet! Glad to be of help

[@bendempsey9772]

Excellent video thank you at the eight minute point there is the small plastic bag with the large and small rubber O-ring and also 2 copper or brass O-rings where do the brass O-rings go? Are they spacers ?

[@JDCarsChannel]

Glad it helped! I'm not sure how to explain in a comment but we did show the location of these seals in the video. Please watch closely

[@jshipley001]

nice job - thanks

[@halletorrez7740]

Okay does the steering fluid matter ? What brand i got a 2016 wrangler rubicon

[@the-bu3lb]

I though it was my pump. When I let go after a turn instead of the wheel quickly spinning back it stutters back a .25 at a time. Still have no idea why. Any ideas ?

[@rchokelal]

Good Video. Thx

[@Timw00d13]

What model maxjax is that? Also how tall is your garage? I believe my garage is similar height so I’d be amped if this could work for me!

[@joshhead9368]

Awesome.video thanks so much

[@LalandeAndCo]

Same process for 2017?

[@jarrettweiss7946]

Anyone know what size the bolts are to mount the pump to the mounting bracket? Long story but I lost two of them.

[@jeepinintexas6215]

What store did you get the Castrol ATF4 from? No one seems to sell it locally where I live and we even have a Summit Racing nearby that say they have special order it.

[@JDCarsChannel]

I believe I got it at Advance Auto Parts, but not positive. You should be able to order online worst case. Best of luck!

[@BRBTechTalk]

Thank you, my 2014 JKU is having the same issue. #BRBAdventurer I might tackle this myself.

[@JDCarsChannel]

Happy to help! Best of luck!

[@jhenryromero6205]

Me ayudó muchísimo gracias

[@leorael4497]

I have a 2015 jeep wrangler jk , the steering is becoming stiff when turning, steering pump is not leaking , could it still be the power steering pump?

[@JDCarsChannel]

Yes, it could be. But it could also be a bad joint

[@SED8TED_C7]

You stated the bracket top bolts are 13mm, they're indeed 1/2 sae. Would hate to see someone round the head off. Great video though

[@DDecker2010]

Do you think someone took the c clip out? why would they send the pump all sealed up with out a cheap c clip on the inside? Just curious man. I replaced mine, bleed the system with a hand vaccum pump and it still has a little bit of whine. def more than the stock ever had. do you get the same?

[@danmulkiewicz5515]

Did you prime the pump before connecting the pressure line? Basically you connect the reservoir, fill it, spin the pump by hand about 30 times until fluid leaks out the pressure line, connect the hard line while it leaks out and then bleed. That should take care of the whine if the air in the system hasn't already damaged it. Good luck. 👍

[@danmulkiewicz5515]

PS he didn't show this step and sometimes you get lucky...which he probably didor he doesn't care thatits noisy.

[@danmulkiewicz5515]

And yeah, I think he got a defective pump missing the c clip.

[@dustinrenner7553]

It's recommended to flush the entire system before installing a new pump just incase there is contaminates from the old broken pump.

[@boghammar1423]

Thanks

[@JDCarsChannel]

No problem. Glad to help

[@thomaspmcguire]

Sorry, but i'm cleaning off the old parts that i'm using to put the new pump on... smdh

[@brandonray2138]
