I am looking for the correct tool to press the pulley back onto the pump. I rented a tool from napa, but it didn't seem to work. It had smaller threads that went in first then the threads got bigger but it was like it was bottoming out before the bigger threads could make contact.

It should be a threaded bolt that starts into the pump shaft and also has a large nut with a washer on it that you tighten down to push the pulley onto the shaft.

It is a threaded bolt like you are talking about but the threads start out small and then get to bigger threads but by the time it is at the bigger threads i think it might be bottoming out.

Something like that? You could make up the distance with another large washer if that is what you are saying. You tighten down the large nut till it bottoms out and that is where the pulley should be.

I have one of those and its not seeming to thread in right. I don't think i have bent anything but if i did while pulling it off could that be why its not threading in right?

power steering pumps suck... i hate them...

the install tool should come with 3-5 different bolts for different threads. might have to check a few.
