In the lexls "how to re-build pump" it shows a pic of the nut and washer he used to get the pump shaft out. The pic is somewhere on this post ore you can see it here http://www.lexls.com/tutorials/steering/pspumprebuild.html
. I cannot see how he used that set-up to get the shaft out with a slide hammer. I know there is a lexus specialty tool, but the tool is $60 and they said it has to be made, so it wont even come until may. So how do i get the thing out?!? better yet tell me how he got it out. If you see the atttachments that come with a slide hammer you buy or rent, I dont see how any of the atttachments could be used except some loc-plyers.
