Can a power steering pump be rebuilt?
Can a power steering pump be rebuilt? So as the title says, can it be done? I see a seal kit on ebay for sale for like 40 bucks.

My pump was leaking a few months ago so I threw some stop leak in it and rolled on. Since the weather here has gotten colder this thing is POURING fluid. So I got the car up off the ground this morning, pulled the alternator (now dead), but havent gotten the PS pump completely off yet. I'm not inclined to think it's the pressure line. Anyway, has anyone ever rebuilt a pump using this type of kit? I'm aslo open ears if anyone knows an interchangable pump I can use from another vehicle.
2000 Z28 T56. No factory PS cooler.
