Type II Power Steering Pump Reservoir Black

The Type II Power Steering Pump Reservoir Black by TUFF-STUFF is a direct bolt-on replacement designed for GM Type 2 power steering pump systems found across decades of domestic performance and street vehicles. As an experienced mechanic rebuilding or upgrading power steering systems, you'll recognize this as a critical component that maintains fluid volume, dissipates heat, and prevents cavitation during aggressive cornering and high-load steering inputs. Whether you're restoring a classic muscle car, upgrading a modern hot rod, or simply replacing a failed original reservoir, this plastic unit delivers straightforward compatibility and durability.

The Type II Power Steering Pump Reservoir Black features a molded plastic construction engineered to withstand typical power steering system pressures while offering lightweight installation compared to older cast-iron designs. Its compact footprint—measuring 5.95 x 4.85 x 8.3 inches and weighing only 0.91 lbs—allows flexible mounting in tight engine bays common to both vintage and contemporary builds. The black finish resists UV degradation and provides a clean appearance in modern engine compartments, while the bolt-on design eliminates complex fabrication and ensures a proper OE-style seal at all connection points.

Builders working with GM Type 2 pump configurations—including LS engine swaps, small-block Chevrolet installations, and factory restoration projects—will find this reservoir essential for maintaining consistent system pressure and extending pump life under sustained driving. Installation is straightforward: mount using existing bolt holes, connect inlet and return lines, and fill with the appropriate power steering fluid. This is the ideal choice for anyone upgrading from a failing OEM reservoir or standardizing fluid capacity across a fleet of vehicles sharing the same pump platform.
