power steering pump

[Ken 6645]

how many different power steering pumps for 64 ford thunderbird did ford make for that year...I thought maybe two because I read some where that in mid season the spout was smaller than the at beginning of the year......also mine has the reservoir on the left side of the inner finder.... any some help would be great
Thanks
Ken

Hi Ken. The only differences I'm aware of were whether or not the car had A/C. If not, the reservoir is on the unit and if so, it's mounted on the fender.

Ken ford used 2 types of pumps. the pumps that have the reservoir and pump as one unit are ford pumps and have short neck no a/c and long neck with a/c. The pumps that have the reservoir on the fender separately aren't ford pumps they were made for ford by another company but I forget who. I think in 64 they hadn't started using the ford pump yet.

Hi checked on the pumps and have been told by a couple places that the pumps that have the separate reservior are eaton pumps. The ford pumps have a pressed on pully also not one with a nut and key way
