KM Power Steering Pump Block Off (062413-5V2) for 1989-2002 Cummins 5.9L

Power Steering Pump Block Off Plate for Cummins 5.9L 6BT Engines

The Keating Machine Power Steering Pump Block Off Plate is designed for 1989–2002 Cummins 5.9L 6BT engines where the factory power steering pump has been removed. Keating Machine CNC-machines this plate from high-quality billet aluminum to deliver a clean, durable solution for sealing the power steering pump opening in the front gear housing.

When builders remove the factory power steering system, they often leave behind an exposed mounting surface or rely on thin stamped plates. Over time, those solutions can leak, warp, or allow contamination into the gear housing. This billet block off plate solves those issues by providing a rigid, precision-machined seal that holds up under real-world conditions.

Designed for Race, Industrial, and Custom Builds

Many race engines, industrial conversions, and custom swaps eliminate the factory power steering pump entirely. In those builds, reliability and cleanliness matter just as much as performance. This power steering pump block off plate bolts directly in place of the OEM pump and seals the opening securely.

Because Keating Machine machines this plate specifically for the Cummins 6BT mounting pattern, it installs without modification. As a result, it works across Dodge truck engines as well as industrial and off-road Cummins applications that share the same front accessory layout.

Billet Construction for Long-Term Reliability

Unlike stamped steel plates, billet aluminum resists flex and warping under vibration and temperature changes. This rigidity helps maintain a consistent seal over time, even in high-RPM or high-load environments.

In addition, the precision-machined sealing surface mates cleanly to the front gear housing. This reduces the risk of oil seepage and helps prevent debris from entering the engine. For builders focused on longevity, this added reliability makes a noticeable difference.

Clean Installation with Included Hardware

Keating Machine includes stainless steel mounting bolts to complete the installation. These fasteners resist corrosion and maintain clamping force in harsh environments such as race tracks, industrial equipment, and off-road use.

Because the plate installs directly in place of the factory power steering pump, installation remains straightforward. Whether you are a professional engine builder or an experienced DIY installer, the process stays quick and clean.

Ideal for Simplified Engine Layouts

This power steering pump block off plate is an excellent choice for anyone simplifying the front of a Cummins 6BT engine. It works well for race-only setups, industrial repowers, and custom accessory configurations where the factory power steering system is no longer needed.

By sealing the gear housing properly and cleaning up the engine’s appearance, this billet block off plate delivers both functional reliability and a professional finish.

Built for Builders Who Do It Right

If you are removing the power steering pump from a Cummins 5.9L 6BT, this block off plate provides a dependable, long-term solution that matches the quality of the rest of your build.
