If you find kits can you hit me up. I bought a new pump and 3 weeks no time to install. My 1152 only had 1200 miles. Still had plastic on the seats and not a scratch. But guess being 2008 caused it. 832 538 6238

For sure no whine from booster. Thought it had a small impellar or something. Like the suction hose idea.
Will get these ordered......ready to roll again.
Thanks to all the replies about the power steering issue. I am getting close to buying either a power steering pump or a hydroboost unit.
Its kind of a guessing game as these small systems don't have pressure gages ect. Problem is a new whining noise and I can feel some vibration with the brake...
Hello,
I should have put more. The belt is fine not squeeling. The alt brackets were tightened...Have not had any leaks. And the noise is a load pump noise.
Wanted to add that since this started when its making a lot of noise you can feel some vibration from the brakes. I will re bleed using tm...
Appreciate all replys. The power steering on my 1152A1 started making noise and not as smooth steering.
The truck is almost to 2000 miles total. I had fluid in my accumilator sight glass. Took off the top and it had fluid mostly full also.
Have not had any leaks or pump issues.

Check your fuel supply brass check valve under the truck. Mine was clogged on a truck with 1k miles. The years add up. I straight piped it as the oem valve was not redily available. I had no fuel supply going into my fuel filter housing. Fixed.
I also have a tank dome light. These military dome lights usually use aircraft quality connectors and cost a huge amount. Going to put a double plug on mine....one day.
Oh the Ro Ro's....
Used to take engineering officer jobs on our ro ro's. Food was usually sub par. Same ro's ro's we took gear to overseas we could have brought it back home. Remember obama and biden leaving billions of dollars of gear overseas. Sad.
Have tried to see another 6.5 with 400 Amp alternator for comparison. My 1152 started shredding edge of belt. Replaced with new but it continued. All rollers feel okay by hand. Noticed the generator not sitting straight. Cocked over. Did not find and broken bolts only 1 bolt on front loose...
I bought a 1998 3 speed. Yes slow and rough riding but designed with tough suspension. It had 50k miles and I put maybe 20k on it before sold. Did replace things needing replaced. Fairly easy to work on. Now I have a 2008 4 speed w overdrive 6.5 turbo. The 1152a1. With 1500 miles.
It won't be as...
Christmas Parade near Houston. Wanted to be bringing up the rear in my MV. The lady saw it was an entry for veterans and put me number 5, behind the chamber of commerce. Nice parade about 1 hour long. A walking parade. Bob and Junior riding on my brushguard.
My fuel supply check valve seemed unclogged when inspected. But apparently not for after removing and running rubber hose it never quits or bogs down again. Dave
