Never done it but you’ll need a specialist puller, here’s a link from a Google search, may not be the correct one or the cheapest.
The pump..? Needs to come out from below.
It comes out from below. But there is a hidden bolt you need to look out for. On the other side of the pump.
How long did it take you to remove the pump in the end? What did you do with the aircon pump?
Hi, Mines a caravelle with air-conditioning it was OK about 4 hrs on the drive way doing it.
I did mine and it’s a bit awkward had to cable tie the air con pump as much as much as I could out the way and the pump literally only just comes out I think over the front of subframe. Take the pulley off first tho.
Just need the right tools and a bit of might. Annoyingly tho i changed mine and didn’t solve the issue of vibrations turning at slow speed/stationary. Then seen the high pressure hose weeping from the pump side crimp and thought bingo! And no…..I’m thinking may as well do the return hose in rack as a last ditch attempt. Videoed it from under the van and it’s pulsating and vibrating a lot so maybe worn but also could be the rack
That is the key, the budget stuff that’s found everywhere these days is often too bulky.
