Power Steering Pumps

[tamahagane]

Hi Guys ,
i Drive a 2002 legacy GT-B ej208 twinn turbo. Where can i get a reseal kit for my power steering kit online????.
I am all the way in Jamaica ,
and we have a LOT of JDM cars here but Subaru is not as popular which makes it difficult to get parts.

I'd contact a USA based parts supplier with your VIN to get the correct part numbers for your pump.
Parts are cheaper there, but check Ebay once you have the p/n...
Have you researched all the related threads on nasioc, LGT etc?
PS pump issues can be as simple as changing out the fluid &/or O rings, so try the easy stuff first

This may help too, note the gaskets on the pump outlet (?) line...

And this
See part 8 O ring...

anyhow it irritated me that part 14 which looks like the seal kit you require wasn't visible in the list.
so I did a little googling and found this:

Hey Dan did you end up getting one from Ultimate Power Steering? If so how did it go? My power steering pump's leaking too, not sure if I should risk getting a 2nd hand one for half the price and deal with possible issues or just buy that one new.

Sorry man i only just saw this post.


No i actually went and replaced the O ring that sits on top of the pump in the black contector.

Seems to have helped ALOT. Also that is where it was leaking from, so i thought that this was a logical place to start.

The pump is still not happy as i can feel "vibrations" thru the steering wheel every now and then.

Whats yours doing?

Interesting, i had a leak as well. Jeremy did the same thing, not getting vibrations but the rubber hoses seem to become solid pretty fast as well

Hey Dan I called Ultimate Power Steering and sent some pictures of the power steering pump. Luckily they confirmed via email that it was the wrong one for my car (MY08 GTB).

I ended up ordering the power steering pump from All Drive Subaroo after finding them really helpful for $600 (speak to Niazi).

My only regret is that I made the mistake of buying a 2nd hand power steering pump, then decided to not go ahead with the fitment (as I was going to get my old one reconditioned). Now I have 1 leaky power steering pump and a 2nd hand one lying around!
