About the Cardone Power Steering Pump Product Line
The Cardone Power Steering Pump line focuses on remanufactured components that restore steering system functionality while maintaining OEM specifications.

The 20-250 pump is part of this line, offering a balance of quality and compatibility for common Ford, Mazda, and Mercury trucks and SUVs.
Detailed Product Description
This remanufactured power steering pump features an aluminum housing for strength and heat dissipation. It connects via a hose barb inlet and a threaded outlet with a 16x1.5 thread size, ensuring secure hydraulic fluid flow. The pump uses an O-ring type hose port to maintain a tight seal and prevent leaks. While the pulley is not included, the pump accepts a press-on pulley attachment. This pump is designed without a reservoir or mounting hardware, so those components must be sourced separately. The package includes the hydraulic pump, a sealing kit, and an instruction sheet to assist with installation.
Common Applications and Issues Addressed
- Restores power assist in Ford Ranger and Explorer models experiencing hard steering
- Replaces failing pumps in Mazda B-series trucks such as B2300 and B3000
- Solves whining noise issues caused by worn or damaged power steering pumps
- Addresses intermittent assist problems in Mercury Cougar and Thunderbird vehicles
- Improves steering response in Ford Mustang and Bronco II with original pump failure
Installation Notes and Tips
- Ensure the press-on pulley is compatible and properly installed, as it is not included
- Check for debris in the flow control valve bore if steering assist is inconsistent
- Use the included sealing kit to prevent leaks at hose connections
- Power steering fluid replacement is recommended even if no issues are apparent
- Mounting hardware and reservoir must be reused or purchased separately
