Detailed Product Description

This Cardone power steering pump features a durable cast iron housing that withstands the rigors of daily driving. The inlet uses a hose barb attachment type, while the outlet is threaded (16x1.5), allowing secure connections to the power steering hoses.

The package contains the hydraulic pump, an instruction sheet for installation guidance, and a sealing kit to ensure leak-free operation. This remanufactured unit does not include a reservoir or mounting hardware, so those components must be reused or sourced separately.
