Product Details

Cardone’s Power Steering Pump line focuses on remanufactured OE-style hydraulic performance with attention to durability and consistency. This unit is built from original design specifications, then inspected for opportunities to improve wear points where applicable. The result is a remanufactured pump intended for Ford steering systems that need stable pressure and reliable fluid delivery. Part number 20-248 is a practical replacement when the original pump is noisy, weak, or leaking.

This part cross-references Ford OE numbers such as F0TZ3A674B and F2UZ3A674A for the same application.

Common Problems This Pump Can Address

• Whining or groaning power steering pump noise
• Hard steering at idle or low engine speed
• Loss of steering assist after pump wear or internal leakage
• Fluid leaks from worn seals or shaft surfaces
• Inconsistent pressure or bypass valve operation

Before installation, inspect the pulley fit, flush contaminated fluid, and bleed the system thoroughly. If the steering system has foam, bubbles, or persistent noise, air may still be trapped and a vacuum bleed may be required. For Ford F-150, F-250, F-350, E-350, and Excursion applications, using the correct OE fluid and an in-line filter helps protect the replacement pump from contamination.

Quality Assurance

Each Cardone remanufactured pump is hydraulically efficiency-tested and checked for pressure, flow, bypass, and valve operation before release. The remanufacturing process also reduces energy and raw material use compared with producing a new part.
