Good news. but the link to bearing packing tool doesn't work, but ok.

Thought I'd throw up some pics of my 68 Fury 4 door. Orig 383 still, with points ignition, going strong

Wheel bearing sounds like a good place to start. Maybe grease any ball joints. If you replaced the wheel stud, does the head of it the same as the others? Last year, when i was replacing front studs and a drum, I had a hell of time finding the correct parts. Until I broke out the micrometer...

Yes...just measured...the hose is 3/8.

A return hose mismatch does not sound like fun. I’ll measure my return hose nipple in the morning

After another look I see the bracket is different but maybe I use my bracket n hoses

It really looks like it will fit especially with the bracket and pulley. I’d be interested to see more pics if you have some. No rush ofcourse.

Looks great. Is it a TRW or federal? How much?

I have a TRW/Thompson, I believe, Model 0.96 steering pump and I'm looking for a rebuild kit that includes the bearing bushing. I'm really looking for the bearing bushing. The pulley side of the shaft is plain and 0.675in. The other side of the shaft is 0.62in I've seen the model 0.96 called...

Hey, Would you happen to have TRW power steering pump? Mine is a TRW Model 0.96 with a .675 shaft, on a 68 Fury 3. The p/s pump is called the 'small' pump.

Just an update, I used a hammer and center punch to remove the seal. It is definitely in bad shape and brittle. Ordered a new seal today, so we'll see what happens.

Good point. I’ll have to watch for that.

Good info... Thanks.

I love the way mine runs. The steering is so easy. The bearing looks good but definitely seems to be leaking at that spot. When the bearing and the shaft is in my hands, you can feel the shaft is worn a bit when sliding on the bearing. I know there is some kind of o-ring/gasket in there...

another question, why are the TRW pumps replaced? I’m guessing because they leak.
