Does anyone have the specs for the pump mounted on the outside drive on the rear of a HEMTT 8V92? I believe that it is the steering pump. Also, does anyone have one or more to sell, including the drive?

Your talking about mounted to the rear of the transfer case? The PLS trucks have an emergency override steer pump there


The pumps on the #3 axle and sometimes #4 are just heavy duty oil pumps for heavy haul like the 917s have hooked to them. They are about 9gpm

It is mounted on the rear of the left-hand camshaft.

I found the Vickers spec number somewhere yesterday and it looks up to be 9 gpm. It has now occurred to me that I may or may not have considered RPM when I looked that up.

I need to get it out and call Baum or someone and see if I can convert it to a two section pump. I need a 3 gpm circuit and one about 9 gpm. I was just going to use two pumps but if I can reconfigure the pump to double it will be easier than installing another drive on the engine case.

Alternatively, I could belt drive a pump for the 3 gpm section.

I'll have to look, but I believe my M985 has 2 pumps on the back of the engine. One for steer and one for crane/winch. They plumb off of the same tank and are both continuous run design.

that looks like the same one on my first truck, 96 freightliner. there will be a part number on the case of that pump, I will go get a pic of a different pump, (like same, but different) for locating the pn. Then google is your friend.
