Sweet Power Steering Pump

S10 Racer · #1 (**permalink**) 03-12-2009, 10:38 PM

I bought a Sweet aluminum power steering pump to put on my S10 project but after install, I found that the front seal is leaking and needs replaced. I can't figure out how to get the pulley off. The pulley is a ALL STAR aluminum pulley. I'm pretty sure these just screw off as the pump shaft has a hex hole in it for an allen wrench but I wanted to ask before I tried. Are these RH or LH threads?

Hi,
I think that pulley is pressed on, & you'll need a puller to get it off.

HI S10 3rd is right you need a p/s puller to remove, not a g/p puller, also if i remember the center hole is to install the pulley. Make note how deep pulley is before removal...Sorry no pics. Good luck jim
