[QUOTE="CarmanKyle, post: 1082757, member: 20300"] Do you have a power steering cooler? Ive been in dunes, 100+ mile desert runs, forest back roads, 2wd/4wd and haven't had issues. I have a pretty big (I think its 9"x6") PS cooler which i believe helps. The size of these trucks, bigger that stock tires, and the strain of 4wd, cooks the PS fluid. Once the fluid is broken down and extremely hot and aeriated it begins melting seals. Thats the problem. The pumps are standard f150 pumps, nothing special. With that being said, my 92k mile truck with a giant PS cooler hasnt ate a pump or rack in 100* heat, 100 mile trip thru the Oregon desert. [/QUOTE]
