Thread: Power steering problems PLZ HELP

you cant do the pump on ramps you need the tire off to un hook th the lines from the pump and then take it out the wheel well.

i changed my pump first, drove it with a bad rack for a few weeks then changed the rack. pump still lives.

and why would you change the lines????? and where would this filter be, never saw or heard of one.

You can do the pump from the top, but it's a PITA, you have to roll the engine forward, but it's doable. You can get to the line from underneath the car with the tire on. I can see the point of not changing the pump until you have the new rack, if something is throwing metal shavings around, you don't want to contaminate a new pump. Changing the lines seems a bit excessive though, I'd just flush them .
