Default PS pump rebuild

I got a leak coming from my ps pump. Before I buy a new one, I remember somebody talking about the option of replacing just the seals. Anybody able to point me to process/part numbers?

Are you sure it is the pump? The hose that feeds the bottom of the pump is a common leak point

9 times out of ten it is the gasket - ebay has them pretty cheap. If it is the front bearing worn out you will need a press to get it apart, do you have one?

The shaft on your existing PS pump can wear and shear which will cause the pump pulley to walk out and throw the serp belt leaving you stranded. For the price of new I would recommend you just replace the pump.
