The power steering pump pressurizes fluid to provide steering assist, and its seals keep that fluid inside the pump. Signs the seals may need replacing include fluid seeping from the pump, a reservoir level that keeps dropping, or a whine from the pump while turning. Diagnose the steering system before rebuilding, because hoses and other steering components can produce similar symptoms.

What does the Sunsong 8401426 kit contain?
It contains the seals needed to restore a power steering pump. Compare the kit contents with your pump before you begin the rebuild.
Why rebuild the pump instead of replacing it?

Will rebuilding the pump make steering easier?
If worn pump seals are causing the problem, rebuilding can help improve steering performance and reduce steering effort. Diagnose the system first, since other parts can cause similar symptoms.

What are signs my pump seals may need replacing?
Fluid leaking from the pump, a reservoir that keeps running low, or a whine from the pump may point to worn seals. Confirm where the leak is coming from before you rebuild.
