The pump features an aluminum housing for strength and heat dissipation, and it uses an O-ring type hose port to maintain a secure, leak-free seal. The inlet uses a hose barb attachment, while the outlet is threaded with a 16x1.5 size, providing compatibility with factory steering lines. The pump includes a sealing kit and installation instructions but does not come with a pulley or reservoir cap, as it is designed for systems with a remote reservoir setup. The pulley attachment is press-on type, so the original pulley can be reused if undamaged.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Applications and Issues Addressed\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRestores power steering assist in Hummer H3 vehicles experiencing hard steering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplaces failing or noisy power steering pumps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolves issues related to fluid flow restrictions or debris in the pump\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAddresses intermittent assist problems linked to pump performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCorrects steering difficulties caused by damaged or cracked pulleys (pulley replacement may be required separately)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInspect the original pulley for damage before reuse; replace if cracked or worn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnsure all hose connections use the correct O-ring seals to prevent leaks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBleed the power steering system properly after installation to avoid air pockets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse manufacturer-recommended power steering fluid and consider fluid replacement even if no issues are apparent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMounting hardware is not included; reuse original hardware or source compatible fasteners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality Assurance and Warranty\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Cardone Power Steering Pump 96-5173 is a new product built to meet OEM standards for fit and function.
