I don't use PS Fluid, it eats the Toy Pumps up and cause leaks.

I've always been told to use Brake Fluid.

[808]

brake fluid really? that seems alot more corosive to me but hmm. i think im just gonna run ps on the new pump, to make sure i dont ruin it ha. but id like to know more about that brake fluid thing

Toyota isn't the only manufacture who recommends Dot-3 Brake Fluid in the PS.
never had a leaky pump or box when I used brake fluid.

the Power Steering fluid.... another story. always makes a noisy pump and it leaks.

[Dingman.]

Idk what you are talking about ive never heard that???


Look at the cap .   TOYOTA recommends dextron 3 ATF fluid in the power steering pump.
So that is what i would use, unless you were in a pinch then whatever works to get you home.

[THK Matt]

brake fluid is fine too.

ever heard a PSing pump? lol
especially the ones on the 3.0

anything but PSing Fluid! lol jking.

brake fluid work better then PSing fluid.. .and ATF is ther best...
thanks Mike.

[Thomas P]

use ATF!!!!!!!!!!!!!! look in your manual!!!

[808]

yeah thats what im gonna do.

thomas u sellin ur iroks?

[Thomas P]

[808]

well lets hope u never sell them then.

[808]

[Dingman.]

if you are in a pinch

idk anyone local who has some.

[808]

i dont even know how to use that site its crazy

[Dingman.]

i put in 1985 for the year.   Select toyota, then pickup.

Then for the part, scroll down to lockout hub, 4x4.

Then a different screen will pop up and you can select years 1979-85 or whatever will work, since they are interchangeable parts.  enter you zip and hit search.


Then after that a screen with different junkyards will pop up and you can see what they charged per hub i guess.   Select one and give them a call and order up some hubs!

[808]

thanks bud

[Dingman.]

Yea not a problem!

So when we gonna go wheeling?

[lilbuddy]

was it a napa pump?  i once replaced one and withing minutes of installing it the damn thing quite working, napa gave me another one and it worked, so i think that the first one was not properly assembled at the factory.

[Dingman.]

The pump may have been bad from the factory like 86turboyota suggested.

If you want you can have my 3.0 pump.  it was making some noise but if you need one to get it by.
Let me know man its just laying on the garage floor for now.

[808]

well i have my old one i just didnt wanna rebuild it because this one i got from a friend. it was working fine on his truck and was only like 3 months old so i dont know. im still thinking a clogged line or something im going to disconnect the return line and run it to see if anything is even coming back into it
