power steering shaft and pulley

[melmount]

I can push my pulley in and out a bit. I would think that there should be no play. Can someone go and pull on their pulley and seeif it moves in and out. Its a fresh reman pump, 2nd one.
First leaked. This is not leaking but pulley moves. I am pretty sure I pressedit on all the way. I thought about trying to push it on further so the shaft is out more and the pulley itseld keeps it from moving in. But i dont think it works that way. This is a 7.3 engine if it matters.

yeah, there's going to be a little shaft end play regardless...

Mine has a little play also. It's not that old.....I replaced it less than 2 years ago.

I just replaced my idler pulley above the pump because it had just a little too much play for me............The new one came....It's just the same....now I have a spare.......Dang...
