TRW ps pump question

TRW ps pump question

Thanks guys. Clip is definitely tweaked. Made of round spring steel maybe?
The reason I mentioned machinist was for them to offer different clip sizes out of their tickle trunk(hopefully). Our hardware store has external snap rings, just not sure if I can sub this style of clip in(the kind with a hole in each end)
More endplay with clip reinstalled.
And yes 2 needle bearings came out of old one, but went back into position. I don't mind the cost of a seal, more the potential of me fn more stuff up lol.
The shaft is dulled right where the gland sits on the shaft.
Thanks all.

I would think that your only issue is the end play- just deal with that. Is the groove for the clip messed up? Snap rings are standard sizes. You might have one laying around or find an assortment at a hardware store. I don't think you need a machinist- you can do this.

Grandpa always told me, “pull the wheel, change the seal”. I am sure he meant this for anything that involved having a seal. The caged needle bearings, if you slapped the housing against your hand and the needles didn't fall out its OK. The actual diameter of needle bearings hold themselves in the cage.

The right side of the pump shaft looks a little dulled, I would change that bearing for sure and clean the shaft up. You can get that seal for sure CR6767 (Chicago Rawhide#) , checking on the nets the whole seal kit is just a little bit more then the seal itself. The earlier seals are leather.

The cir-clip I would to bend back into shape, if it lays flat after your bend, your good to go. Some farm/home stores would have these in there hardware section. Use a feeler gauge to lay on top of the shaft so the openings of the clip does not scratch the shaft during install. The groove on the pump shaft looks to be machined round not squared, nothing but a cir-clip will work.

If I was as far as you now, I would change all the needle bearings and a new seal kit.
