Most likely it's a hose come loose or ruptured. It sounds like, from your description, that's where the PS pressure line connects to the rack and pinion. If it's leaking that bad, it's a big break in the hose, or it came completely off where it goes into the steering unit. It's a pretty difficult job to replace it due to cramped working area. Good luck, and merry Christmas.
I think your power steering pressure hose burst or is leaking.
Could be leaking some other place in the power steering, but you heard a pressure release it must have been the high pressure line. Obviously, there is a leak since its hard to steer. You should check your power steering lines to see where your leak is.
Both hoses are Connected to the RACK below and Rear of the Engine they are CODE THREDED so You CAN NOT Mistakingly Connect them to the Wrong Spot One is High Pressure and the Other is Low Pressure Return the Return is the One that CLAMPS to the Nipple on the Fluid Tank.
Dave , I have one in my cj5. The info I got on it was that it was out of a Cadillac Fleetwood from 69-1976. I was able to get a switch from Rock auto for it.It is basicly the same as any other GM column. They were also use in other gm models in those years. Larry [email protected]
