Hi guys,
Well as you all know, last weekend I put another engine in my project car, the blue 01 TJ. However, when I was swapping the engines, the P/S pump got wedged between the old engine and the body when removing the old engine and dinted the P/S pump pulley. So I then bent the pulley out to about where it was before and thought that it should be ok. I then started it this morning, held it on full lock and heard a loud screeching sound, so I immediately check the P/S belt only to find that a quarter of the belt had been shredded off! However it was not shredded on the side where the P/S pulley was damaged so I wondered what could have happened. Although it wasn't shredded on that side, I still thought it would pay to change the pulley (that wouldn't be a problem as I would just use the one off my TL wreck which I got the engine from). However I looked at the pulley, no sign of an allen key or bolt. So my main question, is the pulley removable on a third gen P/S pump? Thanks

not sure thought couldnt you just use the whole PS pump from the TL?

Yeah but its a bit of a pain in the arse. Oh well I guess I could just do that and see how it goes after that. I know the TJs engine had 2 newer belts on it too but I used the TLs original belt for the P/S as it wasn't as tight. But now I'll hav to use that other belt. I'll see how that goes I guess.

Also does anyone know what the capacity of the P/S system is? As I will need to drain that. Or maybe I could just use the drained oil in it again?

I think it'll be alright now. I used another belt, tensioned and reseated it correctly. I looked at the P/S pump pulley and it looked alright. So I will see how it goes. If it does it again I will probably just use the TL's p/s pump.

Use the pump and rack from the tl as is far better
