Has anyone rebuilt their power steering pump? I have been pricing reman'ed ones VS the rebuild kit. It's a saving of roughly 40 bucks. But im concerned as to whether the rebuild kits hold up.

Don't bother, get a reman and be done with it.

I bought a kit for mine and ended up with a reman. The kit gives lousy instructions and I got frustrated. For the extra money, it's well worth it.

I've rebuilt two non-Jeep PS pumps. One was a Ford pump the other a MB pump. Depending on you finances, for $40 more, I'd get a rebuilt pump. On the MB pump, I think I was looking at a few hundered more. I remember my brother rebuilding the PS pump on my mom's Toyota Corrola. A rebuilt pump was $350, a new was $700 from the Dealer. The rebuilt kit was $7. Basically the rebuild kit was a bunch of o-rings and seals.
