Question was there a design change on the power steering pumps. I have a 98 and need a pump, its shot. Ordered one from Advance and it doesnt look anything like the old one. Everyone online it looks like the one that I had ordered.

The pumps are the same but the hi pressure hose and racks have different ends on them. That changed somewhere in the '97-'98 run.

...My 1998 SHO V-8 steering system makes a growling sound. I have added fluid at times. It steers O.K., so my question is: what's my problem? Is it a pump problem? I fully intend to keep it so I'd like to keep it in good condition. Thanks, Jungle Jim

The mistake was mine, didnt realize that the 4 bolts i removed was to mount it to the car not the actually P/S pump bolts. Still have a small leak, going to replace the pressure line.

no actually the leak was coming out the main seal in the front of it. Plus the pump moaned awful bad. Going to replace the pressure this week or next.
