Type II Power Steering Pump w/Reservoir Chrome

The Type II Power Steering Pump with Reservoir Chrome from TUFF-STUFF is a direct replacement unit engineered for classic and modified vehicles requiring reliable hydraulic steering pressure. Whether you're restoring a vintage muscle car, upgrading a street rod, or maintaining daily-driver performance, this pump delivers consistent flow and pressure regulation essential to responsive steering feel. Built as a complete assembly with integrated reservoir, it eliminates the need for separate components and simplifies installation on platforms that demand Type II pump geometry.

This Type II design uses internal compensator technology to maintain optimal pressure across varying engine RPM and steering demand cycles, preventing cavitation and hydraulic noise common in undersized or worn pump cores. The polished chrome finish protects the aluminum housing and reservoir against corrosion while delivering the visual appeal modern restorations demand under the hood. Chrome plating also provides thermal stability, reducing heat transfer from the pump body to the fluid—critical for maintaining viscosity during sustained high-load steering inputs encountered in track days or aggressive autocross driving.

Mechanics and enthusiasts working on Chevrolet, Pontiac, Oldsmobile, and Buick platforms built between the 1960s and 1980s will find this pump ideal for both OEM restoration and modern performance upgrades. Compact dimensions (7 x 6.5 x 12.5 inches) ensure fitment in tight engine bays where space is limited, while the 4.5-pound weight contributes minimal parasitic load compared to heavier cast-iron alternatives. Verify your vehicle's pump mounting bracket and pressure hose routing before installation to ensure compatibility with your specific intake manifold and steering box configuration.
