Pasquale -

I rebuilt my old pump but never managed to stop the leaks entirely. Then
at the pick-n-pull junkyard one day, I found a rebuilt unit just three
years old for $20.

There are lots of rebuilt pumps out there, now in junkyards, and the ZF
rebuilds get a nice new nameplate with the year stamped on them. And of
course you can see if there's evidence of drips or the wrong fluid in
use.
