2Blue2's 1977 Cobra2 Driveway Build

Went to cruise second weekend in a row.
Talked buddy into going too.
He says only third drive on his new locker rear.
Fun to see his fastback out and about.

Put new power steering pump in Jan2022 and today the car is whining and bucking.
Power steering is freaking out.
WTF
Thinking the Cardone pump just took a chit. IDK

Pump is here and in. After much bleeding procedure.
Drove the end of block and back with no leaks.
It is louder a bit than the last one for sure but didn't say it had the 'slipper' internals.
Same Cardone part number as last one. 96-7054
Hope this one makes the distance. If anything else happens it might become manual.

I know the additives are more of a “Band-Aid” fix, but I’ve been running it in ford pumps for years,and it’s treated me pretty well
