can the power streering pump shaft bearing be replaced?


Recommended Posts

I have rebuilt an EA82 steering pump.  The big problem was the copper gasket that I had to substitute with the regular one.  I am not sure if EJ series has the same pump though.

 

Good luck,

 

Sam

Junkyard it.

Probably just the bearing in the front that has gone bad, but if that gets bad enough it can cause the bushing at the back of the pump to wear. And if its wobbling its possible the pump rotor is getting worn as well.

 

Those pumps are always around in junkyards because they really don't fail that often.
