Does the hydraulic fan pump have a proper high pressure outlet fitting?

Skip,sorry so slow with a reply.By sight and not really knowing the correct terminology:-
The stock power steer pump has a "normal" High pressure hydrulic line [swaged?] going from the p.steer pump and a spring clamp line[low pressure]on the return to the pump.
The fan pump has spring clamp fittings both from the pump and on the return line although the outgoing line looks set up to take more pressure it is not a swaged fitting.
The info seems a little cloudy which is why I asked for more info but alas it has not been forthcoming.Will try a PM to Norbie.
Cheers.Pete.

I am very tempted to use the fan pump for running the steering in the 1JZ XF, for a couple of reasons:
1. It's in a very handy place
2. It would save getting rid of/bypassing it
3. It has a potentially useful looking solonoid on the side of it, that (might?) even work to regulate PS pressure
The problems I see are:
1. I then have to get rid of the PS pump, and rearrange the belt to work without it, which it won't do without an extra idler pulley/moving something else
2. The fan pump, while it has a proper high pressure outlet on it, looks to be much smaller than the PS pump, and may well not have the flow for the job
I'm very tempted to try it, just to see what happens, but I still have to get rid of that damned PS pump.

shinny - take the suggestion offered in the other thread, and stick your alternator where the ps pump was!

Indeed, an idea. Guess I'll be silly enough to give it a go once the engine's mounted in place, and see what happens...

I think you guys might be struggling to have enough pressure and flow for your steering systems using that pump. I suppose the steering will be just a bit heavy thats all.
Due to the fact the outlet of the fan pump doesnt have a proper high pressure hydrauilc fitting id say it's pressure will be right down.

The useful looking solenoid changes fan speed with engine temp(takes it's input from the fan speed control computer) so I'm pretty sure it regulates hydraulic pressure in the fan pump (assuming higher pressure = faster fan speed).
It's worth a shot, the 1jz hydraulic fans are very underrated.
