Yes. There are an awful lot of results on the search 'rebuild power steering pump'.

Need ta put in new seels.
Take it out an' rebuild it or buy a new Juan.
Also it should have Dexron III or equal in it, not that clear "pahr stern flooid" stuff.

I did too but from Oreilys. $135.00. I forgot to come check my post and wouldn’t you know it, they had useful advice.

Check on the FAQ and the owners manual. The power steering system uses automatic transmission fluid.
Alot of people talk about only using atf in their power steering instead of actual power steering fluid.
I don't have an owners manual and I'm positive my fsm does not say to use atf

And just for good measure. From the FSM, page SR-6
I was just looking at mine tomight to confirm transmission oil and saw the same for the PS.
if you don't have an FSM, here's your FREE source:
For Sale - 40, 50, 60, and 80 series FSM for a hell of a price.

Toyota recommending it, is reason enough for me. After all they engineered the power steering system to operate using ATF as stated in the owners manual and FSM.

Toyota recommends ATF as a refill, they came from the factory with power steering/hydraulic fluid. They are close, but ATF has a bunch of additives that are not needed in a pure hydraulic system. For relatively light use ATF works, when used harder, hydraulic fluid works better, less cavitation, etc. Have resealed a bunch of them, the ones that have run ATF are always dirtier, more varnish, gel, hydraulic fluid units are much cleaner.
Our default fill is Mobil DTE light, good stuff, but not easy for most to get, plain P/S fluid (not the type for Honda, Audi) works well and is easy to get. The only time I put ATF is when nothing else is available, like on the trail, when back home flush that sh*t out.
I believe they say to use atf because it's easily accessible compared to power steering fluid. I run I think it's prestone Asian power steering fluid in mine. I have some aw32 and aw46 hydraulic fluid at my place of employment that would work also I'm sure.
