93 V6 PS Pump Leak

Our 93 V6 has a rather significant leak at the power steering pump now... seems like it got worse recently. Anyway, I have the Toyota manuals and I'm wondering about tearing out the pump and doing a minor 'rebuild', in the sense of replacing seals, gaskets, etc. Has anyone done this before with their PS pump? From the manual, it looks like the unit is basically a vane pump, so there is the risk of taking it apart and the vanes falling out. I'll have to be careful about that. Otherwise, any thoughts?

Thanks!

Look at what an aftermarket rebuild costs, with a lifetime warranty, and I think you will decide that as a DIY it's not worth the trouble.
