Well, after replacing the power steering rack on my '85 240 (which was groaning and leaking like a sieve) and replacing the power steering fluid reservoir (which had a cracked fitting), it now appears there is a small leak coming from the pulley shaft on the power steering pump.

I see rebuild kits available for cheap ($7.50 for all new seals) and rebuilt pumps for around $45 bucks (Cardone and Duralast).

Which way should I go, and what tips will help me in the process?

Many thanks in advance.

Aaron
