    1999 5.7l yukon power steering pump removal, 4x4, can't get it off

    I checked rock auto, and the TWO new OEM ac delco pumps available,..both use statements in their description to make me believe they may be rebuilds, even though they are stated as new. Also,. there is a RIGHT HAND DRIVE, and a LEFT HAND DRIVE,.. In USA I am obviously left hand,..and the left...

    1999 5.7l yukon power steering pump removal, 4x4, can't get it off

    I now must trouble you with another question, if you have time. My pump exhibits NO normal symptoms of a pump going out. Has 110k miles on it. I first thought it was a squeaky belt, then I thought a small twig was stuck between the pully and the motor..but you can't see much in that little...

    1999 5.7l yukon power steering pump removal, 4x4, can't get it off

    I just read a LOT of reviews given,..on autozone power steering pumps. APPARENLY there's not a cold chance in hell I am going to use this one,..or any other one from autozone,. I didn't know their PSPump reviews were so bad. And I see on amazon it appears they are selling NEW OEM AC DELCO...

    1999 5.7l yukon power steering pump removal, 4x4, can't get it off

    It will fit, but the shoulder prevents it from going the last 3/16 of an inch... So I'm scratching my head over what they were thinking. HOWEVER,..the 4 main bolts that bolt the power steering pump in,..they will hold the unit so the shaft is perpendicular to the belt,..I am beginning to think...

    1999 5.7l yukon power steering pump removal, 4x4, can't get it off

    I think I'll wait until autozone is open. The Yukon is important to me because my wife can drive it in snow and be somewhat safe compared to her Camry (Right now the roads are clear). It get's driven a couple thousand miles a year,..and mostly by me (when my diesel truck is too full of...

    1999 5.7l yukon power steering pump removal, 4x4, can't get it off

    I thought I just uploaded 2 pics. Now they are gone. Here they are again,. They show the new pump having a shoulder where the old one doesnt (top bracket stud). I'm not sure I should drill the bracket to fit over the shoulder. But nobody is at autozone today for me to go see if they've got a...

    1999 5.7l yukon power steering pump removal, 4x4, can't get it off

    I got some help from my kids. Here are two pics. One of the old power steering and one of the new. See the shoulder on the stud? that shoulder is not on the old one. ANd it does affect the back bracket alignment, but I am not so sure it would do anything to the alignment of the front shaft...

    1999 5.7l yukon power steering pump removal, 4x4, can't get it off

    Holy crap. The replacement pump I got from autozone looked like an exact match. But now I see that BOTH the studs have a "hold out" shoulder rather than just the bottom one. These are the studs to attach the bracket. I was going to just drill the top hole of the bracket out,..but then I...

    1999 5.7l yukon power steering pump removal, 4x4, can't get it off

    Hey, I am 60, I barely know how to send picture messages, yet alone post fancy stuff like that on the internet. Wish I was younger. The only reason I am replacing this myself is because my mechanic has failed to call me back for 2 weeks,.... (and also,..I forgot that I decided a few years ago...

    1999 5.7l yukon power steering pump removal, 4x4, can't get it off

    Thanks, It dropped right out. It looks like the clamps for the power steering hoses are single use? I can see no way to remove them unless I grind them off or something. There has to be an easier way.

    I found one near the exhaust manifold. That must be what you were talking about. I'm having quite a time finding something that will FIT and that I can turn at the same time. I think it's 14mm, (it's a nut on a stud..so I assume it's the same as the nut on the other stud near there.

    1999 5.7l yukon power steering pump removal, 4x4, can't get it off

    My power steering pump is squeaking, so I'm replacing it. I think I've watched 100 videos online and not ONE had an answer for me. All the video's I see have the setup with the alternator above the power steering pump (both on the driver's side). My Yukon has the air conditioner pump above...
