Idiots charge 7 to 10k for this oil pump.

The electric motor itself is basically silent. It is the bearing inside the pump for sure. I can tell by the way it grinds when I hand turn it.

Shaft number. This is going to sound crazy but somehow I need to identify this pump and or it's manufacturer. I do not want any of my normal suppliers involved because they charge 5 to 7 to 10 grand for this piece depending on who I re-order it from and I know there is no way in heII it should have to cost that much.

Bet you could find a local machine shop to make one for pennies on the dollar.

I went through about 17 pages of google images on the lap-top. I finally found it and called the people who manufacture/import it (who knows) and resell it to my supplier. They have to call me back on availability. Way more than 10 times cheaper. If someone held a gun to my head I am sure that I can replace that bearing/rebuild that pump. My worry is that the inside of where it goes is all scored up anyway. As loud and as loose as it is I'm am almost positive it's got to be scored.
