power steering

Old pump was leaking and whining so I replaced it. Installed new pump and tried to bleed the system with the car off and the fluid level didn't go down. So I kept turning it then decided to start the car to see if that helped, still no fluid movement. Tried to drive the car and had zero power...

I’ve got a 95 Ranger w a 4” lift kit. The power steering pump is starting to whine a bit, I was wondering if it would be smart to replace it with a new pump with a bit more power? If that were the smart thing to do what would y’all’s recommendations be? I use the truck primarily as a farm...

Another writeup of some shop work from the 1998 utility-outfitted Ranger I was working on. The power steering rack leaked quite badly, with the power steering fluid (ATF) coming out the rack via the rack/pinion side, washing the grease out of the rack to the boot and then the ground. Got the...

Hello, Kind of embarrassing to have to ask this but I disassembled my gear box partially and decided to start with my pump rebuild first which I completed and found this piece lying around. Any idea what it goes to if either of these major steering components? I am at a loss I tried photo...

I just got a '96 Ranger 4cyl 2.3L that came stock without power steering and was trying to find the difficulty level and all the parts needed to install it. Normally I wouldn't mind the manual steering but I am street parking and trying to parallel park with no p/s and a manual transmission is...

My power steering pump has been whining for a while, even after changing the fluid. So, I decided to try to replace the pump... This didn't help even the slightest! I replaced the pump and flushed the system. It is still just as loud as ever. I turned the wheel many times and did not see...

Hello, I'm putting a 351windsor in a 1983 Ford Ranger. I have everything ready to go except my alternator and power steering brackets. Yes, I know the part numbers and that you need to find a car between 1978-1986 with the correct v8 pulley. I went to a junkyard and found a power steering...

I have a 1983 Ford Ranger which I am putting in a 351w in it. I read up online to use these three part numbers. I'm having trouble finding which models they actually came off of, if anyone knows that would be a great help. Ford P/S Brackets P/N E7TZ-3C511-A Ford P/S Pump P/N E6SZ-3A674-B Ford...

I had meant to do a write-up on this for a while now (original thread was over a year ago) but never got around to it. Lately I had some PM's concerning this process so I decided it was time to put an actual how-to together. Difficulty: 1 out of 10 Time to install: Tubes and hoses - maybe 10...

Hey, whats up guys....hopefully someone can help me out with this... I just bought and installed a remanufactured "Cardone" steering pump from orielys, I as well replaced both pressure and return line with new ones. I filled the pump with Mer/Dex ATF Valvoline and bleed the system. I started...

when it gets hot outside, and i drive the truck enough (get it hot too) i get this play in the steering that i cannot pinpoint. i think its in the rack itself. it makes a small knocking sound in the steering wheel, i can feel it more then hear it... just enough to notice it well enough for it...
