Detailed Product Description

This Cardone power steering pump features an aluminum housing that ensures strength while helping to dissipate heat generated during operation. The pump uses a press-on pulley attachment type, though the pulley itself is not included, allowing for reuse of the original pulley if it remains in good condition. The inlet uses a hose barb attachment, and the outlet is threaded with a 16x1.5 size, designed to fit the specific hydraulic lines of the Range Rover's power steering system. The pump supports a remote reservoir setup, which is common in Land Rover models, but the reservoir and mounting hardware are not included in the package. The product comes with a sealing kit and an instruction sheet to assist with installation.
