Buying a used power steering pump: what to check

  1. Rotate input shaft to feel bearing condition: Turn the pulley hub by hand to detect internal shaft play, gritty bearing resistance, or pump rotor binding.
  2. Inspect reservoir and supply nipple for cracks: Check plastic fluid reservoirs and supply nipples for stress fractures or hardened O-ring seals.
  3. Verify pulley hub and shaft press-fit style: Confirm whether the pump uses a press-on pulley shaft or a bolt-on flanged hub matching your belt setup.
  4. Check high-pressure threaded fitting seats: Inspect high-pressure outlet line threads and internal flare seats for cross-threading or metal burrs.
  5. Flush steering rack lines before pump installation: Flush old fluid and metal debris from the steering rack to prevent ruining the replacement pump.
