Replace 4WS steering pump with... ??

What do you replace the 4WS pump with (the pump thats in the rear pumpkin) when you do a complete 4WS removal??

Has anyone tried a freeze plug??
What other options are out there??
Anyone that has made a plate that works as a replacement for the 4WS pump??

I think a freeze plug has been mentioned before.

Its better that the RTV/gasket marker I had covering mine.
 

Wow, a plastic bottle cap and a gasket thing covering the hole, doesn't sound to good /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/uhh.gif

Does anyone know the size that should be used on the freeze plug??

You could just find a nice used 4 bolt rear - they go for around $200 and live worry free! great upgrade !
 

I have been reading on the 4-bolt, and it seems to be very strong! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

But to be honest, my car doesn't see, or will ever see hard launches. I'm more into track driving like the nünburgring track in germany, and the rear end/axels in a car that sees that kind of driving doesn't see a lot of stress/hard launches. At the moment I don't believe that my intentions justifies a 4-bolt rear end. Maybe I'm wrong??

Complete 4-bolts are in my opinion very cheap, but the shipping quote to Sweden will most likely be both my testicles <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/uhh.gif" alt="" />
