Re: hilux steering pump
One of the fittings may have come loose?
If not its a very simple pump to overhaul if it does come down to it.
A bigger power steering pump would not do much as you still have the same power steering box.
Changing the pulley on the pump however would be cheaper and have the same benefit if your trying to achieve more displacement.
I would be upgrading the power steering box, my mate has a GU patrol power steering box and can turn 35 MTZs on the spot with a finger on the steering wheel.
