Supply the hydraulic pressure behind your steering assist with the Atlantic Automotive Engineering (AAE) Power Steering Pump 5608N, a new 2004-2008 Subaru Forester power steering pump that also fits the 2006-2007 Subaru Impreza. AAE builds this hydraulic pump with OE-quality components as a direct replacement for a failed original unit. Each pump is inspected and tested for OE operation and fitment before shipment.
- 100% tested in the USA: Every unit is hydraulically tested under load in the USA before it ships.
- Included components: A press-on pulley and a return pipe adapter come with the pump, and the sensor is preinstalled.
- Remote-reservoir design: The pump is sold without a reservoir, reservoir cap or filter. Mounting hardware is not included.
- Housing and ports: The housing is aluminum, with a 16.0 mm clamp-on inlet, a 14.0 mm banjo outlet and a hose-barb port type.
AAE designs its pumps to match or surpass OE specifications for performance, fit and function. This new pump is sold without a core charge, and the listed applications use one pump.
When planning a power steering pump replacement on the 2004-2008 Subaru Forester, AAE highly recommends replacing the steering fluid reservoir at the same time, because a clogged reservoir can starve the new pump. AAE also advises flushing the steering system and refilling it with an OE-approved power steering fluid. Country of origin: China.
