My power steering pump leaks quite a bit and gets hot (215°F on the pump housing), so I am looking for options. I haven't found a local shop that will rebuild it in Southern California, so I am shopping for rebuilt options. If anyone has a source that they had a good experience with, then I'm all ears. Below are the details and what I have found so far.
1.
Ebay Refurbished ($163 BBB, sounds legit)
https://www.ebay.com/itm/31505843081...QAAOSwqABljPVQ
2 (sounds like the best option for replacement/customer service)
$155 Advanced Auto Parts (Cardone Power Steering Pump Part # 21-5661)
https://shop.advanceautoparts.com/c4...upId=-49999297
3
OEM part number MB351362, no new sources, but all the auto stores have questionable results for refurbished.
4
Not available, so this is a bit irrelevant

I would rather not try to rebuild my pump on my own unless I had some really good instructions or videos to follow. Buying a kit looks nice and cheep, but I could certainly mess it up.
The rubber seal on the cap is also pretty hard, and i can't find a replacement cap. I will end up making a gasket, unless someone know how to cut out and replace the original with an off the shelf replacement.
Thanks in advance,
Chris
