Hello everybody! I am new to mechanics and just had a question about finding parts, I have a 1976 mercury comet with a 302 v8 and it needs a new power steering pump, I’ve called every parts store I can think of and none of them have any in all of Canada (where I live) I was wondering if there is other vehicles that would be compatible as a replacement part. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Rockauto has several choices. Unless you send to Cardone for rebuild, plan on reusing your pulley & and reservoir canister. It is IMPORTANT to verify if you have the early or late version. https://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog...+v8,1132276,steering,power+steering+pump,7380
Some pumps are furnished with reservoir, unless badly bent from some bozo prying, I like to reuse orig. There's a video on autorestomod on reservoir swap procedure & of course all over youtube. BTW search around for code, board members get a 5% discount.
Google Rode's Restorations in Galion, Ohio. They can rebuild YOUR pump....that way you know you have the correct one.
Last I heard, Roger was not rebuilding Ford power steering pumps. He is unable to get the proper parts for rebuilding. Let us know if things have changed?
