Rembrant Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 Hello, I have an 1985 F250 4x4 460/7.5 liter with Air and messed up the power steering pulley. Any suggestions on replacement sources? Thanks in advance Chuck Every now and then somebody pops up looking for one of these PS pulleys, and I don't believe anybody is making them in the aftermarket. That leaves the junkyard and scrap vehicles. I guess the good news is that they were used on lots of other vehicles besides the pickups, so they should be somewhat available, assuming you can find a junkyard with old vehicles (in other words, a southern junkyard). Some on Ebay, not sure if they are the same... This one is an E2... https://www.ebay.com/itm/115103282516?epid=8009723736&hash=item1accb0b554:g:QL4AAOSwIKJhmGxz https://www.ebay.com/itm/224677268428?hash=item344fcf0bcc:g:oLwAAOSw0JJhhTJV https://www.ebay.com/itm/115103282516?epid=8009723736&hash=item1accb0b554:g:QL4AAOSwIKJhmGxz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the engineering number (stamped on the part) he should be looking for (if he has A/C): E3TC-3D673-BA The part number is: E3TZ-3A733-B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently it was done for the fan as they only go crank, WP and PS. AC is separate, but does cross the outer groove of the WP pulley. Alternator is crank and alternator only and air pumps are run off the alternator pulley. I definitely do not miss trying to find that "matched set" for the power steering pump.

The MPC (on the site) is very misleading as the only other number shown for a 460 power steering pulley is listed as 1987/ and for EFI (Serpentine). I haven't checked my copy of the MPC to see if any other numbers are shown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
