Detailed Description

The Atlantic Automotive Enterprises 6258N power steering pump is built for drivers and repair shops servicing hydraulic steering systems on Ford and Mazda vehicles. It is manufactured with OE-quality components and tested to verify operation before it leaves the USA. For long service life and proper steering performance, flush the system and refill with an OE-approved power steering fluid during installation. When replacing the pump, AAE also recommends inspecting or replacing the steering fluid reservoir, since a restricted reservoir can starve the new pump.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

• Hard or heavy steering effort
• Whining or groaning noise from the power steering system
• Low hydraulic pressure at the steering gear or rack
• Leaks or wear in an aging hydraulic pump
• Poor steering response on Ford Taurus, Ranger, Mustang, and Explorer applications
