I think my power steering pulley is warped. I can move my pulley from front to back and vice versa around 2 to 3 cm. Is it the pulley or the shaft that is the culprit? I am not losing any fluid and I have great power steering with no problems. The only problem is a loud metal on metal screech around 1300 RPMS. Every other pulley on the front of the engine is new and there is no sound when the belt is removed.

 

I could be wrong, but I remember when I was going to replace my pump I couldn't find just the pulley. Seemed like it was all or nothing. I was probably just looking in the wrong place though.

EDIT: Never mind, it looks like you can find just the pulley. Looks like it's a pretty simple change either way you go.

 

Yeah it is really easy either way. I just didn't want to buy both if I only need one.

EDIT: It was the pump. The shaft is wore completely out, hence the movement that didn't cross my mind until after I got home with a brand new pulley. If my brain worked about 30 minutes faster I'd be alright! Oh also remember when buying a new pump you have to remove the studs/plugs in the back of the reservoir. I've kept Autozone busy today!
