Any Saginaw Power Steering Pump Experts?
Alright guys!
I went to yet another part store to look at a reman pump. That had easily over .020 without a doubt...it felt more than mine.
So all pumps I am finding play. I transferred the guts of the NAPA pump into my stock pump and assembled it. Interestingly, the NAPA pump had the cam lightly honed, so it looked nice and machined. I used that cam over mine. I get .012-.014 thrust play after all said and done, and I'm starting to believe that is normal. For now, I am done with the power steering pump.
I'm having a hell of a time trying to find someone who can reduce the runout on my pulley. Most machine shops are saying "thanks but no thanks".
