Local NAPA here does them and even takes pics to assure you get the same unit back.

Easy to rebuild but tough to find long pump parts.

Damn. Didn't catch his name did you? I could use about 10 rebuild kits.

Kurt. Gould quoted 95.00 plus shipping. 1 Year warranty. Mock wants 225.00 with a lifetime warranty to build your original. Mock wants 325.00 for an outright purchase. Lots of casting dates on hand. This pricing was quoted for a 3969811 (396) pump. Both say they use only US made replacement parts..Joe

You make me VERY nervous pressing bearings in that way. Those ears are very thin wall and will snap easily. Better to support on the rear cover surface.
