Power Steering Pumps
Power steering pumps for race cars, built to handle sustained high pressure and heat that a standard road pump isn't designed for. The range includes aluminium pumps from Sweet and KSE, with options running from around 1300 PSI up to 1700 PSI, with or without a pulley fitted, and with different drive styles including 3/8" hex drive, through-shaft and tandem drive for up to 700HP.
Choosing between them comes down to your existing drive setup (pulley, hex drive or through-shaft), the pressure your steering rack needs, and whether you need a pulley included or already have one. Sweet also offers a version with an integrated fuel pump drive for applications running off the same accessory drive.
Check pulley tooth count and drive type against your current system before ordering, as these pumps are built for specific mounting and drive arrangements rather than being universal fit.
Frequently asked questions
What pressure rating do I need?
It depends on your steering rack and application; this range includes 1300 PSI and 1700 PSI aluminium pumps, so match the pump to what your rack is specified for.
Do I need a pump with a pulley or without?
Choose a pump with a pulley fitted if you don't already have a compatible pulley, or a pulley-less pump if you're reusing an existing one.
What's the difference between hex drive and through-shaft pumps?
Hex drive pumps use a 3/8" hex fitting to connect to the drive, while through-shaft pumps drive directly off a shaft; which one you need depends on your existing drive system.
