Hydraulic Pump Rebuild

[Derek Pulvino]

True that on what I received as well; aka no new caps.

So, got the caps off (care of cold chisel and hammer ala Bernie Benz), and
the pump split open, now can anybody provide some info on how to get the
drive-shaft portion out of the body?  You know, the part that attaches to
the pulley.  Kit included a new shaft seal for that portion, and I'd like to
replace that as well.

Also figured out that new o-rings for the external pentosin unions are not
included with the kit.  Looks like time for 1-800 University Audi.
