Power steering pump ea81T

Featured Replies

Not having much luck searching for one mine is leaking pretty severely. do any other years swap with a 83? Or is there a rebuild kit? Or should I delete it and put a manual rack in?

I'm pretty sure the ea81 turbo shares the same power steering pump as the ea82...

Some one will be able to clarify this ;)

Cheers

Only difference is high pres fitting & resevoir between the years 83 & 87. Change fitting on later pump & you should be golden.

Look at the pics on RockAuto for 83 & 87 gls for differences.

I'd have to dig for it but I may have the late resevoir & a core pump.

I saw the rebuild service just didn't know if that was my only option. Thanks again guys.

You might try an EA82 pump as I think it's possible that only the mounting bracket is different between the EA82 and EA81T pumps. It's worth a look anyway. I have both here so I'll compare them and get back to you if I can find them in storage.

Thanks, comparing pictures now I'll probably try the rock auto rebuild service but it's good to have options

Subaru don't do a kit as such for the EA82 Series one, they did it piece by piece. I bet you can pull yours apart, get seals and bearings from even a bearing shop and be done. Did mine years ago. Circlip pliers were handy
