Any help is appreciated  |
Many guys ask me questions by message. So I leave an answer here.
Use the PS pump used in a car before May 2008 ( PS Pump after May 2008 have the opposite rotation direction.).
And, one of the two pulleys seems to have been changed for May 2008's pump, but it's too old to remember. Search for it and change it if there is a pulley with a different part number.
Then, choose a proper length belt. That's it. Easy job.
IMO, don't stress out to make and mount additional custom pulleys, just change the PS pump. It's a really simple method and easy way, and can have the same quality as stock.
There were no problems for 3~4 years.
