Detailed Product Description

This Maval Remanufactured Power Steering Pump 96238M features a robust cast iron housing that ensures long-lasting performance under demanding conditions. The pump is engineered with a single outlet that uses a threaded attachment type, specifically sized at 16x1.5, providing a secure and leak-resistant connection. The inlet uses a hose barb attachment, complemented by an O-ring hose port type to maintain hydraulic integrity. The pulley attachment is press-on style, but note that the pulley itself is not included with this unit. Additionally, this pump does not come with a reservoir, reservoir cap, or mounting hardware, so these components must be sourced separately if needed.
