I upgraded my power steering pump on my 03 Ram 3500 but when getting the new pump and pulley the first thought was about the pulley alignment so I laid it right next to my old power steering pump on the workbench and press the pulley down on my new pump until it was exactly even with the pulley on my old pump sitting right next to it and it lined up perfectly when I put it on the truck.
I was thinking the same thing when he was putting the pully on. I have a new pump only. Was thinkning I would use my old tank & pully. But haven't even started yet. I can't be left without my truck. So now I'm searching for a pully. The website I bought the pump from doesn't sell either parts. Just the pump. Use to be a guy can order rebuld kits & fix anything~! I haven't determined whether or not my old tank fits.
You are a life saver my man, I been searching for 2 months on an answer as to what to do about a new ps pump, so glad to have finally found this. Cant wait to get my truck up and running after a long while of sitting
I went to put my new pully on my new zf style pump and saw it didn’t fit flush like the stock one but then saw this video and it made me feel a lot better seeing yours looked exactly like mine
Awesome video. A little tip, electric fluid extractor, saves a whole bunch of mess when disconnecting the pump/tank. Your vid helped TONNES! Greetings from the UK, keeping the 5.9 travelling across the world!
Very informative, I would like to hear less cussing, I often watch these with my son present so he can learn aswell. But other than that your video had all the info I needed to compleat the job!
I have a 2008 dodge 2500 and I can't find any videos on when you connect the high pressure line. When I disconnected line spring and spool valve came out. And a small pin. I understand spring and spool valve but can't wrap my head around tiny pin that came out. Very confused. Haha
In regards to the pulley swap does it include all years? I only ask cause mines an 09 3G and with the weird mixups in terms of parts between early/late 3g's and early 4g's id just like to be sure i gotta buy it lol.
The ZF vs snap ring thing is kinda pointless in my experience, I bent the old pulley on my snap ring pump, I was trying to swap the pumps like for like, any how apparently the ZF pump has a shaft diameter of .663, the snap ring has a shaft diameter of .630, if you need a .630 pulley you're out of luck, I couldn't find one anywhere, dodge won't sell them, none of the parts stores had it and all the ones I could find were seven rib, so now I have no choice but to return the snap ring pump and switch to the ZF pump
So you can use a standard serpentine belt with this set u? I ordered the zf pumps/reservoir and pulley, is there anything else I need? The video is great and I’m sure will save me a lot of time and 4 letter words when it comes to install.
I bought the ZF pump a few months back. When I tried to install it the lower pressure hose recepter was smaller the the pressure hose. ? Is should i buy a new hose or an adapter fitting
I bought a new old style pump for $79 at Reilly's and I don't need to buy another pulley. They also have the pulley removal/re-installer loaner tool that you can buy and return for full price.
@@maddawgnoll mine has lasted 277K before starting to leak at the tank/pump interface- so doesn’t sound like it needs an “upgrade”. Best thing you can do for your steering is get a steering shaft support bracket; mine from rough country cleaned up all the steering sponge and wander caused by steering box bracket flexing.
@@Natedoc808 borgeson six bolt box, borgeson steering shaft, carli stabilizer, carli adjustable track bar, upgraded T style steering, dynatrac ball joints, fox 2.0, sway bar bar links, Cardone pump. Maybe you got lucky, but I had to change it all. I'm glad I did. The fear box failure due to the crap parts mopar used (mainly steering linkage) caused my second and third box to fail within 3 years. Which in turn caused damage to the pump. Maybe i didn't need to "upgrade" but why the hell not. I'm under the hood, under the truck. Do it all and it's new at 220k miles. I won't be worrying about that for a long time now. Drives better than it ever has The video is about upgrading the pump, not just replacement. So the OP didn't do anything except show ignorance by making a smart ass remark.
@@maddawgnoll video just says pump install, so the “upgrade is a must” being thrown around seems misplaced. What is the deficiency in the stock pump? Sounds like you’ve been through it with your front end. My 03 being our 3rd cummins (others are a 95 and a 99) and those other components you’ve replaced were all fine on our trucks, just the usual wear parts of ball joints and rod ends, steering stabilizer (shock). The steering box support has been a god send for our trucks and our 95 got some mean death wobble at one point. Aftermarket doesn’t always mean “better”
@@Natedoc808 I think he mentions upgrading in the video, not the title. I'm in a power wagon so the box brace is pointless. Already have the front of the frame tied together with the huge mount for the winch so that's not the issue. T style steering is way better than the Y style. I'm not saying the pump is a bad pump. I more or less was pointing out the fact that a $79 pump from autozone or whoever isn't an upgrade. This is the second time I've replaced the steering linkage in less that 70k. Death wobble is, was I should say, a problem for me for 6 years. Replacing a part here and there chasing the problem, only wore out the new parts faster. I got fed up with shotgunning parts at the front end and said f*** it. Replace it all and eliminate the problem. Ended up with two fried ball joints, cracked and falling bushings. The tie rod and drag link was toasted. I love my dodge and mopar. The gen3 just has front end parts that fail too soon. My 94 Cummins doesn't have any issues other than what normal wear and tear would cause. When it's time though, I'm upgrading that to. The steering box has especially made this truck a pleasure to drive again. Dynatrac ball joints are rebuildable on the truck for a fraction of the price. I find they are worth the extra cost if nothing else, peace of mind. I do the work myself, and yes all this was done by me. Whoever owned my truck before me really messed up some things. The ball joints must've been replaced before me. These were not stock and literally fell apart once removed. I bought it with 115k on it so there was obvious problems early on, before me. Not every truck will have issues, but it seems more common than it should be. No offense to you whatsoever, but when someone compares a parts store pump to a Cardone pump. Well there isn't really any comparison. If you get 200k out of the blue light special, you're gonna get double that out of Cardone. That's why they cost and that's why we put them in. Isn't necessary, but it's available. I'll take advantage of the time and put in something that I know is better, regardless if it's more costly. This is also my third dodge I've owned, and I've never had issues with the front end before this one. My Cummins only had 120k on it and she's old now haha things will start to fail because of age alone. The motor is where it's at and she's very clean and strong
I have a 2008 ram 2500 with a 6.7. it has been deleted and has meth injection ,compound turbos ,hardway tuner,big air and exhaust. .oversized pistons and injectors ..can I run it on veg oil if I have the correct heaters ect. I have a 99 dodge 2500 gas truck as a parts truck. Been thinking about putting the tank and delivery system on my 6.7 with heaters to run veg oil. Then I read something saying you can't do it on a 6.7
The old pump pulley had a nut in the center to hold the pulley on. The new style pump does not have a center bolt in the kit to hold the pulley on after pressed on install. Is that necessary and missing the nut or is that just the way the new pump and pulley is?
That’s my concern also. The old style you have to press on and off but have the additional bolt. My PS just started leaking at the tank to pump interface (likely bad o-ring) at 277K, so I’ll be spending 71$ at oreillys and borrowing their free puller/install tool for the old style, with lifetime warranty
Just replaced my PS pump on my 2005 5.9, used Napa 381402N, looks similar to this pump. But now the steering is almost impossible to turn when the truck is stationary. It did not do this before. Any Ideas? PS I thought the pump was bad so I took it back and replaced it with another one. Still no good.
@@nvmxmoto6479 wtf... Makes me want to take my original apart & replace the seals. One use to be able to order "rebuild kits" for just about anything. This industry has experienced a bad case of monopolized capitalismitus.
Got a question, I have an ‘03 2500 Cummins, I picked up the exact pump 96-1008R and my high pressure line (o-ring) won’t seat into the pump, ran a caliper on it and it looks short. Any ideas?

Great vid, the tips and details about the install are priceless imo.
Thanks for watching!!
Has anybody had a problem with the check valve from the original pump not fitting the new ZF pump?
18mm for the High pressure line nut, I used a normal 18mm and it was better than the flare wrench!!!
Thanks for the flush info !!
Watching this reminded me hiw I've been working on my truck for over a year..caught it from a drunk who thought he was bie duke

Lol. I’m from close to Evansville, and getting ready to change my power steering pump
Very informative video thanks a lot.
I appreciate the feedbacks. Thanks for watching!
My '04 ram1500 4.7 has (6) rib belt. So count your ribs before ordering a pulley.

After six months how is the cardone pump working out?
Can i remove pump and pulley and replace pulley with existing tension on serpentine belt? Or do i loosen serpentine before i start?
Is there improvement on steering? Does the need pump flow more, more psi? Gonna do the power steering on my 2006.
Good question!
So how do you flush the system?
Marcus, Looking to buy an '09 6.7 6-speed. Do you have any insight? Been a 7.3 guy but looking to switch over
