    Wobbly power steering pump pulley

    I rented that kit from one of the chain stores. It was a worn out chinese piece of junk. The center bolt was rounded enough to not be able to keep it from slipping in the wrench. Plus it is so long it is way up inside the radiator shroud between the fan blades.

    Wobbly power steering pump pulley

    A little more info. It has a 2 groove pulley 6.5inch without a keyway or center mounting nut. I ordered a new replacement which shows to be correct part from all my research. It is a dorman 300-121 which is a 5 3/4" pulley. The paperwork with it says it is the proper replacement even...

    Haven't pulled the back belt off to check. I have removed the front belt (actually it removed it'self).

    Wobbly power steering pump pulley

    How would i tell if it is the shaft or the pulley wobbling? The entire power steering pump assembly is original to the truck but has been removed at least a couple times, but the pulley has never been removed from the shaft as far as i know. There does not seem to be a leak.

    Wobbly power steering pump pulley

    I've long had a pretty good belt squeak on startup that I haven't been able to chase down. It seems to be getting worse. I also noticed a little repeating squeak not very loud that seems to coincide with the wobble I now see in the power steering pump pulley. I don't have the typical power...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I've done quite a bit of work with tolex. The best way to attach it that I've used is regular old Tightbond wood carpenters glue. Type 1, 2, or 3 wouldn't really matter for a box inside the cab. Works way better than any contact cement, super glue or glue sold especially for tolex. Fender...

    If you are returning it I might not mentioned you were beating it with a hammer. ;)

    Missing sway bar bolts. Anyone know what size they are?

    This is the set of bolts I used to add a sway bar to my 2wd. Much cheaper than buying individually. https://www.lmctruck.com/suspension/tools-suspension/frame-hardware-kit-4

    What have you done to your square lately??

    no magic. i didn’t tell you it took 4 times painting them. Waiting two weeks before putting them on. Then they still weren’t fully cured and then yesterday this happened from the tonneau cover. Stripped them all the way down,now using an adhesion promoter, and repainting again today.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I installed a factory front way bar setup on my 83 GMC, it is the RPO F59 that mine never had. 1 1/16 inch bar. I used the factory bar and brackets with new Energy Suspension bushing 3.5175G and new grade 8 bolts. It seemed to go on easily and lined up with the factory holes in the frame...

    LE9 305 w ESC Performance upgrades '86 k5 Blazer

    If you start having intermittent starting problems that you can chase down to lose of spark, I would look at the ESC. You can buy a $20 bypass loop cable on ebay to disable/bypass the ESC, and leave all the ESC stuff in place. Check the timing after disconnecting the ESC, it will probably be a...
