Steering Components Q&A

What does a power steering pump do?

A power steering pump supplies hydraulic pressure to your steering system, making it easier to turn the wheel. It helps maintain smooth, controlled steering at low speeds and stability at higher speeds by regulating hydraulic flow to the steering gear.

What are the signs of a failing power steering pump?

Common symptoms include whining or groaning noises, stiff steering, or fluid leaks around the pump or reservoir. If you notice these issues, check fluid levels first — low fluid can cause pump damage if left unaddressed.

How do I choose the right power steering pump for my engine?

Match the pump to your engine make and front drive setup. TSP offers pumps designed to fit specific bracket and pulley systems, ensuring proper belt alignment and hose routing. Always confirm fitment by vehicle make and engine type before ordering.

Do TSP power steering pumps work with both manual and power steering systems?

TSP pumps are designed specifically for hydraulic power steering systems. They will not function with manual steering setups, but many builders upgrade from manual to power using our compatible brackets and hoses.

What should I do if my steering feels heavy after installation?

Check fluid levels, belt tension, and hose connections. Heavy steering can indicate air in the system, a loose belt, or low fluid pressure. Bleed the system and verify the pulley ratio for proper flow and assist.

What finishes are available?

TSP offers polished, black, and natural aluminum finishes to match your engine bay and complement other TSP components such as brackets and pulleys.

Do TSP steering components come with a warranty?

Yes — all TSP steering pumps and components are covered by a 1-year limited warranty against manufacturing defects. You can find full details on our Warranty & Returns page.
