Desolate Motorsports Ford 7.3 Power Stroke Saginaw Power Steering Pump Conversion engineered specifically for 1994.5–1997 Ford 7.3L Power Stroke diesel trucks.
Built on the same proven concept as our extremely popular 5.0 / 5.8 / 7.5 Saginaw conversions, this kit delivers improved steering performance, increased reliability, and eliminates the common issues associated with the factory pump design.
Each kit includes a Desolate Motorsports designed and fabricated mounting bracket, a brand-new Saginaw-style power steering pump, billet aluminum Desolate pulley, new pressure and return hoses, and all required fittings for installation.
The Desolate Motorsports bracket is precision built from laser-cut steel, fixtured and welded for accuracy and strength, then zinc coated for long-lasting corrosion resistance and durability.
Eliminates the notorious factory power steering pump whine
Proven and reliable Saginaw pump design
Increased steering pressure for larger tires and off-road use
Durable metal reservoir replaces the weak factory plastic reservoir
Improved steering feel and overall performance
Heavy-duty fabricated bracket built to last
Whether your truck is a daily driver, tow rig, or dedicated off-road build, the Desolate Motorsports 7.3 Saginaw Conversion delivers the steering performance and reliability your OBS Ford deserves.
Some 1997 model year trucks were equipped with a different steering gearbox than earlier OBS Ford models. The only difference in our kit application is the adapter fittings used at the steering box, so it is important to identify which version your truck has before ordering.

“Normal” 2-Bolt Style:
Features 2 bolts holding the top cap down with 1 adjustment screw in the center.
1997-Only 4-Bolt Style:
Features 4 bolts holding the top cap down along with 1 adjustment screw in the center.

Man it’s the little things that make a big difference. Never liked when I opened my hood and my eyes would go straight for the papier-mâché shims. Now with these things in there the engine bay looks so much better. Simple install and quality as usual. Very Happy
Absolutely love these things. I installed them like a year ago and never posted a review. Super easy to install and look sharpe as hell (even better at night). These guys do it right.
Just installed complete led upgrade....looks great....they actually dim out which surprised me...good products from obs solutions my go too for tasteful upgrades
Of all the upgrades I’ve made this one is my favorite. The braking feel is night and day difference, it’s worth every penny. I recommend installing the super duty P/S pump at the same time you do the vacuum pump delete kit. It makes it slot easier to install the P/S pump with the fan shroud removed. The delete kit doesn’t include two 18 gauge wires or splice connectors which you will need to wire the new vacuum pumps. For the price I think the kid should include these.
The light went in no problem and look great at night, the only down side was I ordered the wrong one, which is on me because I didn't realize I had the metal dome light. Only recommend to double check the kit you order. Sorry for the dirty dash, its a work in progress.
Great product, resolved issue and was easy to install.
Perfect fit, easy install, solved the exact problem it was meant to, 10/10.
My truck is a '96 F-350 Crew Cab Long Bed with a small lift, dual exhaust stacks, and a toolbox mounted behind the cab (between the exhaust). Reaching into the toolbox has always been a challenge, so I finally decided to splurge on this step—and I'm glad I did.
It has completely exceeded my expectations. My family and I have already taken a couple of camping trips, and loading and unloading the bed is so much easier now. The mount is incredibly solid, and installation couldn't have been any simpler.
My only minor suggestion would be to offer a version where the step sits a little farther toward the rear of the bed. In my case, the toolbox and exhaust stacks make that location a bit more convenient, but I realize that's a pretty unique setup.
**P.S.** I love the air fresheners! Such a unique and refreshing touch (pun intended). I'd love a couple of extras in my next order if possible. 😊
Kit worked perfectly. They threw in an air freshener which was a nice touch. Thanks OBS Solutions!
