Hi, i am new to this forum, and i couldnt find the search feature. Anyways, i have an 01 ram 5.9 L cummins, and i am having issues with steering and brake. i dont know what the parts are called, so i will post pics.



i have the parts here in front of me, so if you need more pics, i can do that, but as you can see the pins broke off of the "pump"(drivin by the cam gear)which in turn rotates the center piece and proceds onward to the power steering pump. is there a place that i can get either a new shaft piece or do i have to buy the whole new pump? any help would be greatly appretiated.
Thanks!!

now the center housing between the vacuum pump and ps pump has some groove marks because i drove it without ps or power brakes for bout a month. (talk about a workout!!) i dont need to replace that do i? the grove marks are not bad, but very noticible
