DPTOOL Power Steering Pump Pulley Puller and Installer Kit — Heat-Treated Steel, Compact Case

DPTOOL Power Steering Pump Pulley Puller Remove Install Tool is a complete, heat-treated steel kit for safely removing and installing power steering pump pulleys on many domestic and import vehicles.

This pulley puller and installer set puts a professional-quality solution in your hands for servicing power steering pumps. Built from heat-treated AISI 1045 medium carbon steel, the kit is engineered for repeated use and stored in a compact plastic case. It includes the adapters, bolts, pressure parts, and an extended screw you need to fit a wide range of pulley hub diameters and common pump models.

Which vehicles and pump types will this tool work with?

The DPTOOL kit is made to fit many popular power steering pump designs across domestic and some import platforms. It accommodates pulley hub diameters of 1-1/8", 1-1/4", 1-5/16" and 1-3/8", and the included forcing screws adapt to multiple pump styles.

• Compatible engines: GM 3.1L V6, Oldsmobile 2.3L Quad 4, Ford 4.6L/5.4L/5.8L V8 families.
• Pump styles: Saginaw, Thompson, Ford C111 and C2, and many Chrysler and VW systems.
• Designed to cover most common domestic power steering pump pulleys.

How do I use the puller and what tools are required?

Use the puller by matching the collar halves and pressure ring to your pulley, fitting the correct bolt size, and applying force with the central screw. The kit works with an impact or air tool for faster operation, but you can also use standard hand tools—a wrench and socket—for controlled, manual removals and installs.

• Use 3/8"x16 or 5/16"x18 bolts provided to secure adapters to the pulley.
• Turn the extended pressure screw with an impact or by hand (wrench/socket) to remove or press on pulleys.
• Lubricate screw threads before use to reduce wear and prevent breakage.

What does the kit include and how durable is it?

The set includes every component needed for most pulley jobs and stores neatly in a portable plastic case. Key parts are made from structural-grade AISI 1045 steel that has been heat-treated for strength and resistance to bending or damage, making it suitable for repeated workshop use.

• Contents: extended pressure screw, pressure flange, pressure ring, pressure bearing, collar retaining ring, collar halves, 3/8"x16 bolt, 5/16"x18 bolt, and instruction manual.
• Material: heat-treated medium carbon steel for longevity and repeated use.
• Storage: molded plastic case for organized transport and protection.

Are there important maintenance or safety tips I should follow?

Proper lubrication of the puller’s threads is essential—oiling the screw significantly lowers the risk of tool failure and eases operation. Follow general safety practices when using impacts or applying pressure to automotive components to protect yourself and the pump assembly.

• Always oil the screw threads before use; dry threads can cause tool damage.
• Wear eye protection and secure the pump before applying force.
• Do not exceed recommended force; use the correct adapter and bolt combination.

Who is this for: This DPTOOL pulley puller and installer is aimed at professional mechanics, independent shops, and experienced DIYers who service steering systems or rebuild power steering pumps. If you need a durable, repeatable solution that fits many GM, Ford, Chrysler and select VW pumps, this kit supplies the adapters, strength, and storage to get the job done safely and reliably.
