My steering pump was leaking and finally decided to fix it this morning. Turned out being the pump housing was bent where it mated with the actual pump. Luckily I had a spare and was able to replace it. Now that it’s back in the car the pump has about an 1/8” or a little more of end play. I do recall before it also had some end play, just can’t remember how much. In the process I also noticed my v belt was really bad and replaced it. No noises with the engine running and the test drive seemed all good. It just bothers me a little that I can see the belt follow the end play of the pump. Is this ok? If not how can I reduce some of the end play?
