pretty sure you cant get gilmer products for 4.0s....

my mums old ED used to throw the P/S belt all the time, we found the pulley was screwed, replaced it and it never threw it again.

must be fun hooking into a corner and losing power steering....ye olde armstrong

my PS wheel thing got warped in a bingle and now it throws off and eats belts constantly, first one actually came off at 80kmh turning onto freeway entrance, not cool to suddenly lose power steering there!

need to find a new pump!
