I need to change the p/s pump on my 1991 eddie bauer. the pump removal looks easy, three bolts, one fitting, one hose clamp, no prolem. I need to, howeve, press off the pulley first. I have a puller, but how do I get the pulley back on the pump after the new one has been mounted. any ideas or thoughts wouls be appreciated.
 






If you have the puller/installer kit, it should have a reversing thread bolt and a big nut that you thread on, then just run the bolt in the pump shaft, with the pulley, then hold the bolt end with wrench and use another to tighten the nut, which pushes the pulley on without damaging it. If you do not have a installer with the puller, you can rent one from most big name parts stores. Hope this helps.
