Product Details and Specifications

Common Applications and Problem Resolution
- Restores assistive steering response in Nissan Frontier, Pathfinder, Xterra, and Suzuki Equator
- Addresses whining noises caused by worn or failing power steering pumps
- Resolves hard steering issues, especially when assist is only present at higher engine RPMs
- Eliminates fluid flow restrictions due to debris in the flow control valve bore
- Corrects steering problems not related to the steering gear but linked to pump performance
Installation Notes and Tips
Ensure the pulley is inspected or replaced as the pump does not include one. The bolt-on pulley attachment requires proper alignment and torque specifications. Since mounting hardware is not included, verify compatibility with existing brackets and fasteners. Use the included sealing kit to prevent leaks and follow the instruction sheet carefully. It is recommended to check and replace power steering fluid according to manufacturer guidelines, even if no issues are apparent.
