Installation Notes and Tips
For 2001 Toyota Tacoma, use the fitment note for vehicles built from 09/2001. Reservoir is not included. The fitment notes also call for an in-line filter and seal kit, and recommend installing a filter, using OE-specified fluid, and flushing the system for warranty purposes. Check the steering unit and related components for binding before replacing the pump, and inspect the pulley carefully if the original pulley has a loose fit or shows damage during removal.
Quality Assurance
Cardone designs and tests its new power steering pumps using reverse-engineering methods developed through decades of remanufacturing experience. The result is a pump built to original-style fit and performance standards, with premium seals and load testing used to verify durability.
