Power Steering Pump and Hose Replacement - FAQ

[Kabanstva]

Arrival of the new PS pump gear. I continue to be amazed at the speed Partsouq ships. Dropped at my door at 830 this morning. Left Dubai last Wednesday evening.

I sure hope this fixes the whine. If it does not, I guess it must be the oil pump gear which to my eye, also looks to be boogered up when I stuck my endoscope down there - BUT, with the PS pump pulled out of the block, the whine is gone. I guess at the least, if the whining sound is less, I will call that a win.

I'm wondering if the depth things are meshing is incorrect for some reason since I have a whine and everybody else with boogered up PS pump gears gets a tick. I'll keep you posted when I install it today after my worky job. FINGERS HEAVILY CROSSED.

Do you remember the part number for this gear? I can’t seem to find it on the Toyota parts sites.

Go to Partsouq, type in your VIN, search under Power Train/Chassis, or Gear Vane Pump, or Power Steering

What tool are you guys using to remove the old PS pump gear? I read back a few pages and saw Wits End had a plastic tool to remove it but as you know Wits End is no longer around. Is there a similar tool that you can buy these days?

I used a small 3-jaw puller. 2-jaw will also work. You can rent from AutoZone, etc.

Believe the plastic tool was for holding the gear when you put the nut back on. You can use a big channel locks and a towel instead.

That's correct. To not mar it up. Was a nice tool.

A leather glove and a strap wrench.

Wrap the glove around the gear, then the strap wrench and hit it with an impact.

Don’t lose the dog locking pin thing.
Also don’t hammer the gear on the spindle while reinstalling like some YouTuber show. Just torque it down to spec like the FSM states

clamped between two pieces of wood in a vice has always worked

As that YouTuber I am mildly offended
