Product Details

The BBB Industries Reman Power Steering Pump line focuses on remanufactured steering components for direct replacement applications. Part number 990-1046 is specified for Mercedes-Benz SLK300, SLK350, and SLK280 models with non-reservoir style power steering pump configurations. The aluminum housing, remote reservoir design, and threaded outlet connection support a factory-style replacement approach for steering systems that require this exact pump layout.

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

Common Steering Issues This Pump Can Address

• Hard or inconsistent steering effort
• Whining or groaning noise from the power steering system
• Low hydraulic pressure at the steering gear
• Fluid leakage at the pump connections or housing
• Poor steering response during low-speed maneuvers

Installation Notes

Verify the vehicle uses the non-reservoir style power steering pump before ordering. Confirm the outlet thread size, inlet connection, and mounting-hole layout against the original unit. Because this pump uses a press-on pulley attachment type and does not include a pulley, transfer or source the correct pulley for the application as needed. Always flush the steering system and inspect hoses, fluid condition, and belt drive components during installation.

Quality Assurance

BBB Industries remanufactured steering components are rebuilt for replacement use in vehicle-specific applications. Part number 990-1046 is intended for direct-fit service on the listed Mercedes-Benz SLK models when the original pump configuration matches the fitment data.
