What's a decent price to replace a power steering pump in my 2001 Dodge
Caravan? I've been quoted $400 and told it's a big job, it's hard to
get to etc...I have 120,000 miles on it. Thanks for any help.

That was the price the one time that I got a quote. It is a big job
from what I understand. Popular Mechanics described the r&r of a P/S
pump in a Chrysler minivan in their magazine a few months back. The
location makes it hard to get to.

If you can't do it yourself then you have to pay prevailing price. It's
only a big job if you've never done it before. With the 4-bangers, you
drop the exhaust and it comes out the tunnel. With the sixes you remove
the wiper module and it comes out the top. $400 is not bad if you're
paying a good shop. $100 is plenty if you do it yourself. Most folks
today want it done professionally at the do-it-yourself price, but that
ain't happenin'.

look at the estimate it's all labor. The part s/b like $60.00 OEM, and
rebuilt aftermarket pump are actuallt more money.
