HELP! 8v71 4905 Power Steering Loss

Ryker · October 22, 2018, 07:48:50 PM

I did not have a way to cross reference but it was only $4 so I'll try it out. It said it was for Vickers (Eaton) but did not give me a model number.

There is only the 2 anyways so you have good odds it is right

In my experience 50-50 is usually 90-10. Lol

Me too the one he ordered is the most common and 4 bucks is a good price,I need to find a deal and buy some more,I am still passing out the Jake seals I bought a few years back

This banter was very helpful! For some reason I did not see the other part number when I was searching but now I see that Motion Industries sells both, and they are local here in Sacramento, which I also did not know. So I will be driving there and taking a look at both part numbers and buying a couple extra. 199390 is only $6.59.

Well, good thing I placed the second order. 199390 is the correct o-ring. 262332 is way too small. I popped it in and it is holding, for now.

Maybe consider running 15W-40 instead especially with colder weather coming. Good Luck, TomC

If you installed the right seal it's good some of those pumps run on 2500# psi,the standard o-rings just don't hold

Ryker · October 31, 2018, 08:19:53 AM

I compared this o-ring to the O'Relly o-ring that I got for one dollar, and I can not tell a difference at all. I even put them both under a magnifying glass and the difference is just not noticeable. I guess maybe slightly different material? Dimensions are absolutely identical and they feel exactly the same to me.

My steering was very easy before this last o-ring loss. Now it is very stiff, and I think worse after I put the new o-ring in the other day. The book does not have a diagram. I am trying to remember what order I put the spring in. Does anybody have a diagram, or an order to insert the parts?

The spring goes in first,then the relief valve with the o-ring towards the cover and pin
