I can't seem to find one of these anywhere. The part number is E3TC3D673BA F3. It's for a 1975 F250 with a 390 in it. It has a dual groves as well. The one I have is bent and will not rotate.

 

Most likely a dealer item or a salvage yard.

 

the dealer dpes not have parts for anything pre 1980 and I have not seen a junk yard with one yet and I have been to 6 of them. I am going to try another one tomorrow but my hopes are not high. I was hoping someone made them aftermarket or there is an upgraded part that might work.

 

The part number indicates 1983, E3=83

 

Really? I wonder if the previous owner upgraded the equipment already, or just put the wrong damn part on to begin with lol

 

NumberDummy turned me on to this company. I called about an obsolete part for my 76. They had 9 of them in two different warehouses. They buy out closing dealerships stock. Ask for there obsolete parts department. DON SANDERSON Ford in Glendale AZ: 623-842-8762. <!-- / message --><!-- sig -->

 

Awesome, thanks. I will give them a try tomorrow too.

 

are you sure its the pulley thats bent and not the shaft?

 

Looks like the previous owner upgraded the power steering. Have you looked in the 80-86 body style for this pulley? I always see more of those in the yard anyway.

This seems to be a pretty common problem if the pulley is removed with anything other than a puller specifically designed for PS pumps.

 

Yes it is the pulley. I got a brand new remanufactured unit. I will see if there are any 80's units available. I am new to this vehicle so I was under the impression everything on it was stock so now that I have this information I will be able to expand my search.

 

ID number: E3TC-3D673-BA = Actual Ford part number: E3TZ3A733B .. P/S Pump Pulley / Obsolete

Original Application: 1983/86 F250/350 460 2WD

The last MSRP was a whopping $121.33

Thru 1977 (trucks and cars): The Ford P/S pumps have a steel reservoir and dipstick with a crooked handle.

1978 and later: The Ford P/S pumps reservoir is plastic, so is the dipstick.

The P/S pressure hoses used prior to 1978 will not fit the 1978 and later pumps.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Don Sanderson Ford does not have it.

GREEN SALES COMPANY in Cincinnati OH has TWO = 800-543-4959.

No Ford Dealer or other obsolete parts vendor has any.
-----------------------------------------------------
btw: Don Sanderson Ford did not get those 1000's of obsolete parts by buying out other dealers.

Sanderson used to wholesale parts to jobbers who then turned around and sold the parts to autoparts stores in Central & South America.

What has happened is...the market for 1960's/70's truck parts has dried up, the parts are obsolete, Sanderson cannot return them to Ford, so is STUCK with them.

There's two other dealers down in Texas that are "in the same boat" as Sanderson.

PARTS INTERNATIONAL in Farmers Branch TX is also STUCK with 1000's of obsolete parts (888-727-0418), as is....

KINSEL L/M in Beaumont TX (800-816-2894).

How do I know this? I used to do the very same thing when I was at Crenshaw Motors Ford in LA.

But...I kept an eye on what quantity we stocked, so when the parts went obsolete, we weren't STUCK with all this jazz like these other dealers.
