HELP Power Steering pump not in line 2000 Grand Voyager 3.3

I had a VERY bad leak, to the point where I would fill it, an hour later it all leaked out. I had a mechanic work on it, and he rebuilt the PS pump, BUT the pulley was cracked, they DON'T make that size anymore. He put a bigger one on, only to find out, it was rubbing on my brake lines :banghead: so I couldn't drive it! SO I had another grease monkey work on it, went through a few new pulley's FINALLY found one! BUT went through 4 Serpentine belts!!

After 3 months with NO VEHICLE, we finally got it all back together. BUT now it is not all lining up :crying: we couldn't tell until we had the belt on. it is about a 1/4 of an inch to much to the right.

I'm thinking maybe washers or spacers would work? :screwy:

PLEASE HELP!!

Those pulleys are pressed onto the shaft. Sounds like it is either pushed in too far or not far enough. You'll either have to press it in farther or use a puller to back it out. I find it hard to believe they don't make those pulleys anymore. I bought one at Advance Auto a couple years ago.

The replacement pulley is about an inch bigger. We "tried" about 3 other pullies until we found this one, that works. It came down to us taking the pump into an Auto store, and had them try to find one that was smaller. I know it is VERY hard to believe.

It is completely on :( I made sure it was on correctly before it was reassembled. I kinda checked all the bolts and the bracket before he put everything back on. I'm normally the grease monkey, I don't mind working on vehicles, but I'm disabled, and I just can't fix my van!

OH and my LEAK was never fixed :banghead:

This One (http://www.autozone.com/autozone/parts/Dorman-Power-Steering-Pump-Pulley/2000-Dodge-Grand-Caravan-2WD/_/N-jeo5xZ8oxzd?itemIdentifier=361382_0_4169_) should fit. Advance Auto also has one the same size, 6.5" OD.

A remanufactured pump goes for around $50, and might be a better bet, than repairing your leaky one.

Thanks, That was the first pulley size we replaced the old one with. That ended up being an inch to big. And the leak wasn't coming from the pump as I was told. The pulley we finally ended up with is about a half inch smaller then the one you posted, it worked out. I just can't figure out WHY it isn't lined up correctly.
