Product Description
Upgrade your steering performance with the PSC SP1401 High Performance Power Steering Pump. Designed for 1980 and newer GM vehicles, this high-flow P-Series steering pump delivers improved steering response and increased pressure capacity for trucks running oversized tires, heavy suspension systems, or hydraulic steering assist setups. The SP1401 pump is engineered using the reliable Saginaw P-Series platform and tuned by PSC to deliver increased flow and pressure at low RPM. This makes it ideal for off-road vehicles, rock crawlers, and performance builds where factory steering pumps struggle to maintain assist. The integrated reservoir and 16mm pressure fitting allow for straightforward installation in GM applications while maintaining compatibility with many custom steering systems.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the PSC SP1401 different from a stock steering pump?
The PSC SP1401 is modified to produce higher flow and pressure compared to factory pumps. This allows it to maintain steering assist when running larger tires, steering assist cylinders, or off-road suspension systems.
Is this pump compatible with hydraulic steering assist?
Yes. The PSC SP1401 is commonly used in hydraulic steering assist systems and off-road steering setups due to its improved flow and pressure capacity.
Does this pump include a reservoir?
Yes. The SP1401 includes an integrated power steering fluid reservoir for straightforward installation in compatible GM applications.
What type of pulley does this pump use?
The pump uses a press-fit pulley system similar to factory GM Saginaw pumps. A pulley installation tool is recommended during installation.
Can this pump help with steering issues on lifted trucks?
Yes. Many lifted trucks or vehicles with oversized tires experience weak steering assist from factory pumps. The SP1401 provides improved pressure and flow to restore steering control.
