Default power steering pump pulley install

before i return the tool does this look on all the way?

this is as tight as i can make it but i read somewhere that the center bolt is supposed to be flush with the pulley..

the shaft on the pump bottoms out on a ridge on the pulley. the shaft does not sit flush with the pulley on the outside.

looks like its pressed on as far as it will go. the tool is only like $20 to rent or $20 to buy. i just bought one, figured i might use it again.

looks good to me

a little trick I did was to put the belt on as I was pressing my new billet pulley on.. that way you can see if the belt is aligned with the other pulleys as you go.
