ThanksIt's Mopar p/n 52087871. It's officially discontinued but there are likely some out there somewhere. I'd cross my fingers and Google it.
Mopar also has a direct rebuilt version, p/n R2087871AD. I'd try to find that before I'd buy a new off-brand. These are definitely out there, though they're not cheap.
Are you saying you would not buy another pulley to put on the new pump ? Even if you can’t get the old pulley off ?Yeah me too, that pulley is a complete bitch to remove and I would not try another. @mrblaine what's the secret?
No I didn't say that, I said I don't know a good way to remove the old pulley and I wouldn't try to remove another unless I learned the secret. If there is a secret that is.Are you saying you would not buy another pulley to put on the new pump ? Even if you can’t get the old pulley off ?
Depends on the pulley. The composite versions seem to be about 50/50 as to whether you can get them off with the correct clam shell puller. Sometime the groove breaks, sometimes it doesn't. We've had a few PSC versions get stuck and peel off the groove. We just sent those back and had them get the rest of the bits off.Yeah me too, that pulley is a complete bitch to remove and I would not try another. @mrblaine what's the secret?
Good way to ruin a pump. They should only have the pulleys removed with the correct puller that reacts only against the shaft. There is a swash plate on both sides of the ring and rotor that really doesn't respond well to being smacked.Don't spend more than $20 of time on it, that's what they cost. I'd back the bolt out a bit until it is proud of the pulley, hold the pulley in one hand and with a hammer wack the bolt. The impact will free the pulley even though the pulley is just held in your hand.
Depends on the tool. Which one are you using?So I have a pulley removal tool. I can not get the pulley off of the old power steering pump. Is that pretty typical???
Oh ok. I’m going to try another removal tool and probably pick up another pulley tooNo I didn't say that, I said I don't know a good way to remove the old pulley and I wouldn't try to remove another unless I learned the secret. If there is a secret that is.
i bought one from O’Reillys. And it tends to slip ,so I picked up the rental tool that has the removal and install kit. It should serve me better.Depends on the tool. Which one are you using?
Removing a pulley from a busted pump, seems like a very useful tip.Good way to ruin a pump.

Doesn't matter, you can't smack one off with a hammer without ruining the pulley.Sheesh, I should have quoted the whole post eh?

Is that better? You don't need to worry about smacking a dead horse, it dead.
