Well, the gauge test will tell. The larger problem with the pumps is low output, not zero output. You can also have low system pressure because the crank shaft bearings are worn, and they can be replaced without taking engine all the way out of the truck. You would also think there would be plenty of valve train noise with low pressure. But I can't hear it in mine with exhaust leaks and Rare Earth turned up.

Savannah, have you actually done this before? If so let me know your proceedure?

may not be pretty, may not get them all, and shade trees may grow in Kiwi-land (New Zealand) - and there have been other posts of in-situ bearing work. You work with what you've got. BTW, he also posts on how to rebuild your own alternator, and how to crossbreed a Ford cruise control to run the Rover..... of course if oil PSI test is good, then keep rolling.
