Product Details

The Ford F250/350 with the 7.3 motor is a great workhorse. Unfortunately, the power steering system can only handle street and light off road usage. When you use it as a tow vehicle and need to do extended periods of low speed steering (backing a trailer), or modify it to larger tires, the OEM pump falls short and will often fail.

Our kit for the 99-03's has been very successful, so we put one together for the 94-96 vehicles. Many people are adding a hydro boost to these older vehicles, so we have an option to add all the necessary fittings, hose, hose ends and a reservoir that has a dedicated hydro boost return fitting.

Our kit replaces the Ford steering pump with our High-Performance Saginaw N-pump that has been modified with a ported housing, chromoly shaft, needle, and thrust bearings. This is the same pump that many of our off-road race teams are using to win the Baja 1000!

The kit comes with a CNC’d pump adaptor bracket that will bolt to the OEM bracket.

Also included is proprietary design 3.5" x 10" reservoir. Our reservoir uses a unique design to keep the fluid perfectly still. This results in zero cavitation and reduces air in the system which keeps operating temperatures lower resulting in longer pump life. Our pressurized reservoir also keeps oil in and dirt out.

The kit comes complete with the pressure hose, return hose, and all necessary mounting hardware.

This kit now includes our 10 micron in-line filter.

If your vehicle has tires 37" or larger, we recommend using hydraulic ram assist. When adding a ram your pump will need higher flow. We offer this pump with a larger liner and billet end cap to handle the extra flow requirements for the ram.

Fluid Recommendation

It is HIGHLY recommended to use our specialty formulated Lee Power Steering Fluid.

AC Delco or Valvoline non synthetic power steering fluid will work as a second choice but do not have the same Wear and Anti-Foaming additives our fluid has.

DO NOT USE ATF OR ANY TYPE OF SYNTHETIC FLUID.

Frequently Asked Qestions

What vehicles does this pump kit fit?

This kit is designed for 1994–1997 Ford F-250 and F-350 trucks with the 7.3 engine. It is intended as an upgrade over the factory Ford power steering pump system.

Why should I upgrade the factory power steering pump?

The factory power steering system is usually adequate for street driving and light off-road use, but it can struggle during towing, low-speed steering, backing trailers, or when the truck is modified with larger tires. Under those conditions, the OEM pump may fall short and can fail prematurely.

Is this kit recommended for towing?

Yes. This kit is a strong upgrade for trucks used as tow vehicles, especially when the truck needs extended low-speed steering, such as backing a trailer or maneuvering in tight areas.

Does this kit work with hydroboost?

Yes. Many owners add hydroboost to these older Ford trucks, and this kit includes an option for the necessary fittings, hose, hose ends, and a reservoir with a dedicated hydroboost return fitting.

What pump is included in the kit?

The kit replaces the factory Ford steering pump with Lee Power Steering’s high-performance Saginaw N-pump. The pump is modified with a ported housing, chromoly shaft and needle bearings.

What comes with the kit?

The kit includes the high-performance Saginaw N-pump, CNC’d pump adapter bracket, proprietary 3.5" x 10" reservoir, pressure hose, return hose, necessary mounting hardware, and a 10-micron in-line filter.

Does the kit include a reservoir?

Yes. The kit includes Lee Power Steering’s proprietary 3.5" x 10" reservoir. The reservoir is designed to keep the fluid still, reduce aeration and cavitation, help keep operating temperatures lower, and support longer pump life.

Does the kit include a filter?

Yes. This kit now includes Lee Power Steering’s 10-micron in-line filter.

Will this kit help with larger tires?

Yes. This kit is a major improvement over the OEM pump for trucks running larger tires. For vehicles with 37" or larger tires, Lee Power Steering recommends hydraulic ram assist.

Do I need hydraulic ram assist?

If your truck has 37" or larger tires, hydraulic ram assist is recommended. When adding a ram, the pump will need higher flow, and Lee Power Steering offers this pump with a larger liner and billet end cap to handle the extra flow requirements.

What fluid should I use with this pump kit?

Lee Power Steering highly recommends using Lee Power Steering Fluid. AC Delco or Valvoline non-synthetic power steering fluid may be used as a second choice, but they do not contain the same wear and anti-foaming additives as Lee’s fluid.

Can I use ATF or synthetic fluid?

No. Do not use ATF or any type of synthetic fluid with this kit.

Is this kit a bolt-on installation?

The kit includes a CNC’d pump adapter bracket that bolts to the OEM bracket. It also includes the hoses and mounting hardware needed for the installation.

What is the lead time?

Lead times vary on this kit. For the most accurate ETA, customers should email Lee Power Steering or call (661) 568-9170.

What warranty does this kit have?
