Power steering leaking
I just found 1 of my power steering leaks in my 1990 toy pickup. My high pressure line has a hole in it. I used a florecent die kit to locate the leak. You can get it at Autozone.
I am fixing my RV 1991 Dolphin which power by Toyota V6 3.0 engine; had the same problem, the racket & pinon steering is leaking, I just finished taking the unit out, buy a rebuilt one @ BAP lifetime warranty to put it back on, about $300 or so.
Basically, it's about 3 things can go wrong with the power steering leaking problem.
1. Power steering pump leak, the seal or around the hose
2. Hose along between the pump and racket_Pinon
3. Racket Pinon itself, seal broken or leak under pressure when you driving. this is my problem here, so I replace the rebuilt one @ BAP;
Good luck!
hope this help!!!

would imagine their is just a oil seal their ,but whats causing the pressure behind the seal to make it leak ,yes i have repaired power steering boxes befoe now but on commercial vehicles 30+years ago ,principle still the same no doubt but i would advise you to get one from a scrapyard so vehicle is usable then when time permits have a play with the old one ,because you may find that its its cheaper to replace than repair with the cost of the spares
Testimonial: "thanx for the advise, I was think the same thing, just was looking for a second opinion. thank you."
