Smog pump disassembly
« on: March 25, 2024, 01:57:41 PM »
I need to dis assemble the smog pump on my 1970 Stang. It needs bearings. So, I got the back off easily enough, but I?m not quite sure how to remove the front pulley and front bearing. I didn?t see any videos/ threads that addressed the disassembly. Also, does anybody sell a bearing kit/rebuild kit for these?

I hope I am remembering correctly when recall a tutorial that a forum someone did on the disassembly and restoration of the smog pump. You might try searching.

There is an eBay seller who sells the bearing and the carbon seals for the vanes.  There are tricks to removing the front bearing and more tricks to install the new one in the correct location.  I will PM you my contact info and you can email or phone me and I will coach you on the job.

Jim has helped a number of people on the 428CJ site.
1968 CJ - Owner and paint original. Dec 67 build in Dearborn. One of 50 135 Cobra Jets. Ford engineering used it for 8 mos. to resolve problems in the 50 early car build. Ford by-passed the normal sign off to get cars to the Winternationals drag race.
