hendrixhc 10,921 Posted December 31, 2013 So ill be in the market for a new power steering pump soon and was trying to find a chrome or alloy one in the saginaw style. None of the ones listed on Ebay seem to mention Cleveland engines. Are they all the same or do they have different pressure ratings and thread sizes for the hoses? Or if any one knows where to get one can you point me in the right direction! Cheers! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RAWDEAL 222 Posted January 1, 2014 If the saginaw is the teardrop one.. i got one off of an EA , 6cyl. they are the same internally .. the bracket was different , so to change that u gotta take the pulley off with a special puller, i cannot remember if the fittings were in a slightly different location or not though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tyler06 266 Posted January 1, 2014 Theere is quite a few different ones with there being ford and GM variants as well. We sell GM ones as they come in Chrome. They bolt up no probs to clevos using most aftermarket brackets but unsure if you can use the standard clevo brackets on a GM one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will the threads on the hose be compatible? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tyler06 266 Posted January 1, 2014 We sell the Aeroflow ones with GM pumps yes. I cant remember thread wise. I can give you a definate answer on monday wen im back at work. You need to buy a pulley for the GM pump seperate too as they dont need a puller to come off. A billet one looks the goods on the chrome pump ;-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BigCav 464 Posted January 6, 2014 Any thoughts on compatability Cav? normally id play it smart and check all the parts manuals and genuine manuals i have for both ford and holden models but i blew up my computer and am yet to recover my hard drive sorry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigCav 464 Posted January 6, 2014 if it helps, i couldnt find it tonight but didnt spend to much time on it but there were a few aussie suppliers like N.A parts that im pretty sure used to sell a chrome body that you reused your own internals for Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hendrixhc 10,921 Posted January 7, 2014 normally id play it smart and check all the parts manuals and genuine manuals i have for both ford and holden models but i blew up my computer and am yet to recover my hard drive sorry I been reading all the ford info i can grab bit they dont really specify any tech specs for the units. I did finf some handy info on a mustang? and gm? forum in the states but it was late last night and i cant validate what i think i read! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigCav 464 Posted January 7, 2014 yeah i read some bronco stuff about using the gm pumps no worries but same deal Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hendrixhc 10,921 Posted January 7, 2014 Im starting to form the opinion that any Gm saginaw pump is going to fit and work and it is a matter of judging the steering "feel". if it is to light then add some washers to the adjuster and if it is to heavy then remove some washers. I might just get the old pump and check the mountings are the same and try me luck with a chrome one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
