96-1008R Power Steering Pump Automotive Replacement Compatible with Dodge Ram 1500, Dodge Ram 2500, Dodge Ram 3500, Dodge Ram 4000, Dodge Ram 4500, Dodge Ram 5500 Models

Came across this steering pump off a YouTube video and after seeing the quality, watching the install and overall results I was sold. Had an annoying whining sound and slow leak off my OEM pump, also running a PSC Hydraulic System so I don’t think the OEM was doing enough. Once I got the pulley installed (Dorman 300 - 149) installation was pretty straight forward; only issue was getting the pump in and mounting bolts aligned. I suggest replacing hoses if you need while in there. Have had it installed for a week or so, nomore problems. Very satisfied.

Works perfectly and is the correct upgrade if you have a 03-05 Cummins 5.9 with the one stupid 7 rib pulley in your power steering pump. This pump will bolt right in however you have to get the bigger aluminum pulley from Dorman. This pump does make a huge difference in steering pressure as it does produce more line pressure at idle making it easier to turn sitting still even with big wide tires

Great deal, like new condition.

Won’t work for 5.7Hemi even though Cardone and Amazon says it will. Pulley from original pump won’t fit this pump. It’s recommended to buy the Dorman 300-149 pulley which fits the pump shaft but the overall size is too large. It rubs the harmonic balancer. I don’t know what pulley is needed?? I’ll be returning all this . Big waste of time.

This replacement pump is identical to the OE ZF pump. 2005 Ram 3500 Cummins OE pulley pressed on perfectly. This pump came with reservoir, cap, and new o-ring for pressure line. Bled with vacuum bleeder hand pump and it didn't even make a noise when started. Power steering and Hydra boost brakes work better than ever. I am a service manager at a Ram Truck dealership and chose this pump over the superseded pump from Mopar because of cost. Would buy again if needed.

This pump {bolt together} is a good upgrade from the one that comes {circlip} in the 03-07 Ram Cummins trucks. The OEM pumps are held together with a circlip. The aftermarket pumps of that style are complete and total crap. This one bolts right in place of it. It is a bolt together style. The high pressure line fits. The reservoir clears the intercooler piping better than the original. You need Dorman 300-149 pulley because the shaft on these pumps are different. When you press the pulley on leave it about 1/4" from being all the way on, then your belts will all line up. Easy Peasy. No more exploding power steering reservoirs or dragging steering at low speeds.

The pump has worked great thus far. I updated my 2003 ram 2500 Cummins from the factory snap ring back to the bolt on back. When I installed the pump it kept getting loads of air bubbles in the reservoir and started leaking between the reservoir and pump when not running. I pulled the reservoir off the pump and found the o-ring damaged (see picture). I installed a new oring and put it back together. Has worked great since.

So far so good. About 1,000 miles on 2006 Ram since the upgrade

Eazy .fast .working good

I bought this pump with the pulley that fits its shaft some time last year. I installed it and it works perfectly.

perfect fit for the 05 5.9

Works well, but it seems loud no matter how much I perform the bleed procedure. Now the dodge sounds like a ford.
