Expedition Power Steering PUmp

[chasineyes]

Need to change the pump on my 04 Expedition with the 5.4 Does anyone have any tips or tricks for doing this. One of the bolts looks easy to get to, the other... not so much.

Any thoughts greatly appreciated!

Get the proper tool to pull of the pulley and replace it. CLEAN the inside of the pulley with a scotch pad (the green kitchen use kind) VERY well, or you will break your tool and swear up a storm.

You'll need about a quart of Mercon V ATF to fill the system when your done. Fill the reservoir bottle TO THE TOP, start the truck and turn off after a second. Then check the level of fluid, top it off, and repeat. After the second time, may be third, turn the wheel left (engine running) and right to purge more air out of the system. fill the reservoir to the correct level if needed, or remove some fluid if necessary.

Power steering pump pulley remover/installer is a must before you even start. Once the pulley is off its all nuts, bolts, and fittings.
