Hi i was wondering what people have done with the leaking power steering pump off a 60 series is there any other model of aftermarket pump that will slot straight in for reasonably cheap or is there a mob that makes a replacement with a bracket, as my pump is basically worn out and will need alot of fixing. and i am not that good at fabricating so it needs to be relatively simple
Thanks Shane Mulcahy

I heard a cressida and/or crown pump was similar and could be used, but never looked into it. I did my old 60's steering once, but happened to luck out and buy a box & pump off outers.
It shouldn't be too hard to pick up a landcruiser pump. Just ring around the country if you're after a better price. Shouldn't set you back much more than 200 bucks these days. Also keep an eye out, as you might pick up a second 60 for parts, for less than 1000. Some pop up occasionally full of rust but mechanically good.

What motor? 2F/3F petrol power steering pumps aren't that expensive reconditioned off the shelf on exhange. Don't know about the diesel ones. Ring Fulcrum/Pedders/Repco/etc.
