BCBC K417-OS Engine Oil Pump Repair Kit

Engine Oil Pump Repair Kit

This Melling engine oil pump repair kit is built for a specific application and is intended for rebuild work when the original oil pump casting or front timing cover will be reused. It is a practical option for Jeep Wrangler oil pump service when the goal is to restore pump function without replacing the entire assembly.

Key Features

• Specific-fit oil pump repair kit for targeted rebuild applications
• O-ring gasket type for sealing during pump service
• Pocket deeper to remove scoring and wear marks
• Powdered metal drive gear material
• Part number K417-OS for identification and ordering

Detailed Description

Melling K417-OS supplies the parts needed to rebuild a specific individual oil pump. The kit is suited to service work where the original casting or front timing cover is retained, and it is listed for 2007-2011 Jeep Wrangler applications with stock configuration notes. The powdered metal drive gear and O-ring gasket design support a rebuild-focused repair approach for Jeep Wrangler oil pump service.

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

What It Is Used For

• Restoring oil pump operation after wear-related scoring
• Rebuilding a pump instead of replacing the full assembly
• Addressing sealing issues at the pump interface
• Servicing a specific oil pump in stock applications

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the pump casting or front timing cover is the correct unit before installation. Clean all mating surfaces thoroughly and inspect for wear, scoring, or damage before reassembly. Verify the application details against the vehicle and part number K417-OS before beginning service.

Quality Assurance

Melling recommends replacing the oil pump outright, but this repair kit is offered as a rebuild solution when reusing the original housing is preferred. It is built for a specific application and supplied with the parts needed for a quality oil pump rebuild.
