Power Steering whining time to replace! So it's time, my P/S pump is whining like crazy. My question is, is it actually the pump or the pulley. The reservoir is fine and I see no sign of leakage anywhere. Thoughts and input greatly appreciated.

The pulley is pressed on to the P/S pump shaft, any bearings are integral to the pump, so it's not the pulley, there's no way it can be. Are you sure you don't have a hole in the return line? They don't always leak, they can suck air into the system too. Rack can do that too.
