Detailed Description

BBB Industries N731-2271 is a new power steering pump built for steering service on 1997-1998 Chevrolet Astro and 1997-1998 GMC Safari models equipped with a reservoir. The pump uses a cast iron housing, a single reservoir inlet, and an M16x1.50 threaded outlet to match the specified application. It is supplied without a pulley and without an EVO component, and the reservoir is included as part of the assembly.

The BBB Industries New Power Steering Pump line focuses on replacement components for steering repair work where OE-style fitment and connection points matter. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 19319919) for the same application. Part number N731-2271 is the reference to use when matching the pump to the listed Astro and Safari vehicles.

What It Helps Fix

• Low or inconsistent power steering assist
• Whining or groaning noise from the steering pump
• Fluid leakage at the pump or outlet connection
• Hard steering effort at low speeds or during parking
• Poor steering response caused by pump wear

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm reservoir-style fitment before ordering. This pump uses a press-on pulley attachment type and a threaded M16x1.50 outlet, so the existing hose and pulley setup should be checked against the vehicle’s original configuration. The application notes specify that reservoir units are the recommended replacement and that the pump is supplied without an EVO component.

For direct replacement service, verify the mounting pattern, inlet size, and outlet thread size against the original unit before installation. Part number N731-2271 should be matched to the vehicle’s steering system configuration on 1997-1998 Chevrolet Astro and GMC Safari models.

Quality Assurance

BBB Industries supplies this new power steering pump as a replacement steering component for the listed applications. The cast iron housing, included reservoir, and OE-style connection points support accurate fitment for service replacement on the specified vehicles.
