I found a pump for 77 bucks,but what other parts will I need? Is there a belt? I know I need the fluid of course,but what else? thanks
 
Yes, there is a belt for the power steering pump and it probably drives other accessories as well. You will also need hose clamps for the connections, particularly on the output(high pressure) side of the pump and where it connects to the hydraulic steering cylinder. It's best if you spend $20 on an aftermarket manual for your make and model. Although this repair/replacement is pretty straightfoward you might pick up a tip from the book that saves you time and/or money. If you plan on keeping the vehicle for any length of time you'll be way ahead troubleshooting and repairing the next problem. Hope this helps..JT
