Power steering pump went out

[extra-medium]

So I guess everything seemed to good to be true lately with my Jeep not having anything wrong with it lately...except until tonight. It was fine until I was on my way home from my mother-in-laws house when I could hear the power steering pump whining, and when I would turn the wheel it would get worse. When I got home I popped the hood and there was power steering fluid everywhere. It looks as if the bearing/seal for the pulley went out and all the fluid leaked out. Good thing is I checked O'reily's website and a new pump with reservoir is $60 with a $67 core charge.

Thats cool man don't sweat it. If anyone gives you grief, tell em you wanted to do it old school, WWII Jeep style. You don't need no stinking power steering. you've got all the power you'll ever need in your arms and backbone!
