Ford/Thompson style Power Steering Pump |
• Pump is disassembled, cleaned, inspected, blasted and painted • Cam Pack is rebuilt with new pressure springs • Input shaft is polished and bolt hole re-tapped • Pump is pressure checked for minimum 600psi • All bolt holes are cleaned and re-tapped |

Ford/Thompson style pumps come painted the correct Ford Power Steering Blue, as is
correct for factory installed units. At customers request, we can paint the pump
a Semi-Flat Black for a dealer-installed style look. |
PLEASE NOTE ! |
Some people who rebuild Mustang and early Ford Thompson-style pumps, only do a "re-seal"
of the pump, and do not fully disassemble the pump or rebuild the cam pack.
We ALWAYS completely disassemble and inspect each pump and EVERY cam pack
gets a rebuild with eight NEW slipper springs. Some rebuilders simply spray-bomb the pump with a black rebuilders paint. We ALWAYS paint our rebuilds with the correct color for the car. Some rebuilders let their pumps go out producing a low level of pressure. Our pumps must meet a minimum test of 600psi at low speed to pass. Some rebuilders have only a 30-day or 90-day warranty on their pumps. We have a full One Year Warranty. |
If you do not have the special tools required to remove and replace the pulley, just
send the pump in with the pulley still mounted. We will properly remove the
pulley, clean, blast and paint to the correct semi-flat black, and reinstall onto
the pump, at no extra charge. |
If you send in the pump mounting brackets, bolts, nuts or dipstick, we will clean,
blast and paint them the correct color at no extra charge. |
Power steering pumps have often been replaced over the years and so many cars no
longer have the correct style pump canister on them. One problem of this is the
return hose nipple often does not point in the right direction to properly fit
to the return hose. For example, many 1965-1969 Mustang pumps now have a canister
that points the return hose nipple upward or towards the fender, whereas the
nipple originally pointed more downward. Many people find that when they try
to install the return hose that the hose is too short or kinks because the hose
has to stretch to slide onto the nipple. |
When we rebuild your pump, if the return hose nipple is supposed to be pointing downward
for a correct connection to the return hose, we will "re-clock" the return
hose nipple to the correct position at no extra charge. If the return hose nipple is bent, we will straighten it, and if it needs re-soldering,
we will do so at no extra charge. |

We try to repair any small damage to the pump canister. We repair the edge lip, straighten
the holes for the pressure fitting and support stud, and hammer out some
of the dents and dimples. We can often straighten bent filler necks. However,
we am not a "bodymen". We cannot repair major or critically placed dents in
the canister. If you want a smooth, straight canister - send us an acceptable core
for rebuild. |
