Thanks big bro. I plan on replacing the A.C compressor with an on board air unit eventually. I made sure I got the A.C working in my wifes Jeep, but thats something I can personally live without
@@barricadegarage5361 ooooh okay. Awesome! Thanks for the reply. I'm sitting in a McDonald's parking lot right now because my pulley came off my ps pump in the drive through, called an uber to take my son and girlfriend home while I wait for the temp to go down and I'm gonna attempt to do this job myself tomorrow. Thank you for this awesome informative video on doing this job! Gonna try to limp this 96 zj home hopefully after it cools down in 30 to 45 minutes
Please continue to make these videos, you are keeping the ZJ community going with these! I know you recently shifted your channel focus but please add a repair video every once in a while if possible. Much love!
I'm only 1:52 into this video and I stopped it to give a thumbs-up, subscribe and comment. Your clear and simple style is a pleasure to follow compared to the many rambling and confused how-to videos out there. Thanks for taking the time to make and share this!
your my first choice when I need to fix something on my 98 zj 5.9 your vids are clear and easy to follow...I love the fact you show the size of sockets or type of tools...I gather all the tools before I even start the job...thanks man...I hope you keep your jeep as long as I do...which will be until I'm 6ft under
You have the best videos on you tube hands down. They are thorough and easy to follow. The best part is that you always show problems as they arise, and what you did to solve them. I probably wouldn’t have my Jeep if it weren’t for these videos. Huge thanks to you.
Thank you. This helped me change up my power steering pump in my 99 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The content was a great help. Your video edit is excellent. Keep up the great work.
Bruh this is the most crazy thing I bought a ZJ two weeks who and the power steering pump just went out yesterday. Thanks for helping me keep my ZJ together
Videos are excellent and easy to follow. I like the way you are straight forward and provide socket sizes etc. Thank you. The beast is my wife's and she does not like the new SUV's. So we are restoring her '96 piece by piece. Pump started leaking and I am replacing it today. 274,000 miles.
Wow a no nonsense video. Pure gold. I didn’t have the socket wrench set so i used the extension wrench from my plumbing supply box. But i did end up ordering the wrench set anyway for the next project. Thanks again.
you've got me fixing all kinds of stuff. You got me through my ball joints (thank you), I'm going to tackle this turd today. Thanks for taking your time to school the DIY people like myself. Very much appreciated (Edit) Worked exactly as you described minus my tensioner being bolt driven. Helped me a ton again. Thanks man!
I broke my PS bracket by over tightening the mounting bolts after my PS pump went out. I went with a similar aluminum bracket to replace it. It was so beautiful it was a shame to hide it with the PS pump, lol. Great vid as always!
Wow you’re the best. I have a 98 5.2 that is my baby. It’s mint. I put a 5.9 interior in it. Anyway I’m trying to keep it as long as I can and I just discovered your videos because I have to do the power steering pump. This is the best tutorial video I’ve seen on anything. Just perfect. Looking forward to using your others if need be too. Already am planning to do your tranny service. Hello from Canada !!
Hey Barricade, Thanks for this very helpful video. I was watching it, not to change the pump, but to replace the pump bracket. ZJ's are known to have a problem with this. I ordered up and aluminum pump mount and sure enough, the factory one was cracked completely in one spot and 90% across in a second spot. Everyone with a ZJ should be checking this! It's an easy repair.
Awesome video bro. I had paid a mechanic I know to change mine out but it's now leaking. I tried to get him to come down and check it out and he is ghosting me. I will pull it all apart this weekend and find out where the leak is coming from. I checked out all the hose and that's not it so I'm pretty sure he didn't put the O ring back on the new one. Thanks to you I will be able to do all this myself. I have a 96 5.2 with 305k miles and I've done pretty much all the maintenance since it had 60k miles on it. I didn't have time and this is why I payed someone to work on it but I've learned my lesson lol.
Thank you! You're the friggin man. Killer videos. I have a '97 ZJ 4.0 and I've changed the power steering pump and steering gear -and other stuff- with your help. Keep making ZJ videos they rock!!!
excellent video my sons power steering pump went on his jeep 2003 grand cherokee and i guess we are going to change it out thanks for great instructions
We think alike , noticed you also have a vise / trailer hitch attachment as well. Unlike a workbench it wont move around when you need to get aggressive with it.
Crazy.i just made that power steering bracket like 2 weeks ago on a cnc haas mill ...my brother and I designed it ourselfs .lmk if u come across any custom parts u may need ill be glad to see how i can help !
I know this is an old video, but I am a very visual person. It's nice to see this job done since I have to do it in a few days. I was worried about how to remove the bolts but it doesn't look bad at all.
@@barricadegarage5361 Haha, I was wondering if it was needed - I have a copy of the FSM and it didn't mention it but I know how tight it can be in there.
@@MaverickXeo heres my video for the perfect fan clutch removal tool demonstrated on the ZJ. I highly recommend it to make the job easier th-cam.com/video/iAsE7tHE9Uc/w-d-xo.html
@@barricadegarage5361 I hate taking off the fan, haha! That said, I have the pump off already - biggest problem was the bolts were too lose for my cheap 1/4" ratchet - the stupid ratchet wouldn't, well, ratchet properly haha.
Good video, but why don't you have your AC hooked up? Which belt do you get to do that? What's the difference between the expensive and cheap power steering pumps?
I gotta change mine in my 94 Wrangler YJ with 2.5 I replaced the hoses which rubbed on a bolt and now got a leak. I got wire loom for the hoses which will stop this. Pretty sure my Ps is the stock one and has seen better days.
amazing friend !! thanks to your videos I can do maintenance on my zj v8 ❤/ increíble amigo!!! Gracoas a tus videos puedo hacer mantenimiento a mi zj v8 ❤. Saludos desde Bilbao
The way you do and explain things on your other Jeep has helped me a great deal and helped me find and fix a vacuum leak wiring issues but I am dealing with two other things currently once I found the vacuum leak and fixed the power steering pump on my 07 Jeep commander is making a weird noise and the belt noise also that’s one problem the other problem is the commander keeps going through ac compressors I’m on my third and can’t seem to figure out why any help would be greattappreciated
1:55 ....Wish I knew this before I tried to remove the pulley itself -- there wasn't any room to remove the bolt (that I didn't know there's a hole in the pulley for that room). I got it shattered and had to replace it but then when I got the order in -- I'm like, how the hell do I put it back in? And hence the research and found this youtube video! That's the solution right there! 1:55

Yes. Overfilling the resovoir can cause the fluid to foam and shorten the lifespan and when the fluid gets hot, it expands and it may force its way out of the reservoir. I would take some fluid out make sure the level is in line according to the dipstick. You may need to add new fluid. Did you order this exact same pump from the video?
My Jeep doesn’t have the pipes in the front and my pump is leaking real bad. This a good video but it don’t show me exactly how to take mines off because everything is set up different
Hello, the steering of my 1997 5.2 grand cherokee vehicle is very hard when stopped, but when I press the gas, the steering softens. Where do you think the fault is?thank you
Great videos! I don't see the steering pump pulley replacement video in the description that you mentioned. Is it anywhere else on your channel? Thanks!
Great Video. I just notice my bracket has a crack. I"m ordering that Billet Aluminum. I was actually wondering why your Serpentine Belt was bypassing your AC. Otherwise Thanks for making videos so informative!! I can't wait to replace my bracket. However I have a 1994 ZJ V8, hopefully it won't be a problem since your video is for a 1996.
Its the same process and parts for all 5.2/5.9 ZJs so you dont have to worry about that and I bypassed my A.C because I had plans on putting an on board air compressor in its place
Great work.. thanks for that alot. I want to ask you what do think about using the Gearwrench 89101D flare nut wrench instead of the crowfoot wrenchs? Are they good to buy them or the crowfoot is the way to go.. thanks
I did this a few yrs ago... I was so proud of myself. kept leaking. from return hose, went to autozone for a hose, the did not cut it right was all rigid. told ask a mechanic to cut it right. who does or says that an an auto motive store.
I have never had that issue but if the TREs arent damage and your steering linkage isnt bent you can have someone turn the wheel while you check out the pitman arm. It might be your pump though
