Ok, I have a 98 4 wd with 35 in tires. I have to put about half a bottle of fluid in the resevoir about once every two weeks. This last time I used Lucas steering pump stop leak. I noticed no difference, maybe even an increase in flow. I have looked around on the internet and can't seem to find a good upgraded sytem. I would like to go even bigger with the tires and lift one day. So I would like to make the system more than capable if I were to upgrade.

Questions:
Has anyone fixed their leaky steering box?
Has anyone upgraded their steering box?
Are there any common problems with lifted trucks having a bad steering system?

And I am not sure exactly where the lea is coming from...I have to wait till this weekend before I'll have enough time to get down under the truck and find the leak. If someone has any ideas where the leak might be that would be awesome!

It should be leaking down the pit arm. I threw a bottle of gunk stop leak in. It has slowed down the leak. But I need to pull the pump and fix it.
