Default Melling oil pump rebuild kit??

Have a melling high pressure oil pump (10295). If it exists, Just wondering where in the world I can find the rebuild kit for this dude. A part # or anything will help. I've found kits on summit but not sure if there's one that fits multiple applications which will work???

Try contacting Melling direct, but as far as I know there is NO rebuild kit availiable for this type of pump. Both gears/housing would need to be replaced.

I kinda doubt there is anything universal for this pump. Youre gonna have to get it directly from Melling, if they even sells just parts. Not much to these pumps, what needs replacing?

The pump has 30k on it and has worked great 50-65 psi all the time. I'm swapping over to a new engine but noticed the gears look a liitle rough/worn. Unless this is completely normal...

Pull it apart and inspect more thoroughly. Looks okay from that pic however. The gears actually spin inside the housing of the pump, so if the gears are damaged then it's likely the housing is damaged too and the entire pump would need to be replaced.
