I went mudding today, driving pretty rough and I noticed now it is difficult to impossible to turn my steering wheel. If I am parked, it's not guna happen, if I'm moving slowly it's a litle weird. If I'm just driving theres no problem. It also vibrates and makes a weird groaning noise when I'm doing this difficult steering wheel turns. Is this a power steering problem? Or could I havemessed something up offroading? Please let me know!

 

You think?

Have you check the PS fluid for water or mud? If nothing else, drain the system and refill with ATF4

 

Weed's right, I'm guessing you might've cracked a hose and lost some fluid, or it's contaminated.

Get used to fixing stuff when you offroad, you pay to play! Ask me how I know how to rebuild a Hemi

 

Well I added fluid and the problem is still here. Where are the hoses?

 

Follow the 2 hoses coming out of the steering rack. Might also want to check the boots and see if either one is full of fluid. If they are, you busted a seal and need a new rack.

 

You didnt really ask that question did you?

 

Your steering rack is Fubar! Had mine replaced on warranty same symptoms

 

You just washed and waxed it yesterday!

 

yes...?
