1972 Duster Build with my Daughter
Ok lets restore a Chrysler Federal Power Steering Pump.... If you have done a Saginaw then these are a piece of cake it is tough to put these together wrong. Oh and this entire rebuild cost me about $16.00.
Running a tap down the threaded hole to make sure the pulley puller will thread in easily..
First the shaft seal. I wanted a new bushing as this was was just a little loose but I can't find a kit with one. Instead of taking this one out and praying I can find a generic one I will give it a go. If it leaks I will pull it apart again, they are easy.
13/16" socket is about right for a driver. Tap it in so it is flush.
Put a little PS oil on the lip so the shaft will slip in without cutting the seal later.
First in is the fibre washer. The manual says some don't have this fiber washer but when you rebuild it use the washer. Notice the indexing to the pin and the opening go toward the slots in the housing.
Now the Brass Plate, keep aligned with the fibre washer
The bottom of the pump plate next
Now the pump wall ring again with the pin alignment and the holes go toward the opening in the lower plate
Now twist the shaft in making sure not the cut the seal and set the 12 pins in place
