Sourcing a pulley for hydro boost powersteeeing pumps
Sup guys
I got a 06 2500 5.9l 6 speed.
Ive been searching all over for just the pulley to install on the power steering pump. The problem I’ve ran into is that all the pulleys that are supposedly for this truck (on rock auto, o riley’s, you name it so far) have a .663” diameter shaft which only fits onto the non hydro boost pump. The Diesel engines need the hydro boost pump for the brakes and steering to work so that’s a no go.
The hydroboost pump has a .63” diameter shaft but I can’t for the life of me find the pulley to fit this pump.
In summary: Am I the only person with this problem? Only setup that works is from the dealer and is only sold with the pump for $800, other than that I haven’t found the pulley I need. Please advice, this situation has been so **** annoying running around in circles over this pulley.
Thanks.

As posted above, just buy a used pump. I switched over to the newer ZF style pump on my 03 by just buying the complete unit used from a wreckers. Way cheaper and easier than trying to find parts.
