Looking for advice about steering pump gasket

gugubugu · 10th May 2021, 10:18

I have bad leaking steering pump from the gasket. Bearing and other sealing is OK. I need some direction where I can find new gasket to refurbish the pump.
Any help is useful.
Thanks,
Regards.

If you can't get a replacement maybe you could buy some gasket material of the same thickness and make one up using the original as a template. Used to do it all the time working on steam systems.

can you state what model and year your car is as the pumps differ?

do a search in the technical section for steering pump as one of the threads has a posting from a member that may have a gasket.

sorry i dont know his forum name

I send the pump to specialist to refurbish, can't do it with out of original gasket. He tray several times to make some innovation with other pumps no success. The gasket is very complicate three composite material. One material side to iron part of the body other to aluminium is as a paper thickness.
