    Doing engine-out on my 95 355 spider and looking for resource(s) for either a power steering pump rebuild kit or a rebuilt pump. Thanks.

    There are places that rebuild them. Let me see if I can find my notes.

    Curious, why do you think you need that rebuilt?

    I think If my PS pump went south, I would just tie the left Hydraulic line to the Right Hydraulic line, fill with fluid,, seal, and do without the power part of steering.

    The F355 is over assisted in the steering department ! and needs a bit more heft.

    As an aside. If you do send your pump in for rebuild, make sure you mark on the pump NOT to have it painted. AAE paints everything black.

    I did ask about why you think you need the pump rebuilt. My issue was "notchy" steering feel. Despite a pump rebuild, it was not the problem.

    The two bearings in the steering column were dirty & sticky. While not a fun process, I was able to get some cleaner and then grease back into them. They work fine now.
