    '01 sport; ps fluid leaking out a crack

    Thanks so much. At least I now know what is in store. And no, I am not in the least mechanically inclined. Wish I were. I did manage to get the instrument panel out of a 88 Volvo without tearing anything else up. Pretty proud of that. Not that I replaced the broken odometer, just...

    '01 sport; ps fluid leaking out a crack

    Finally, I have a picture. Not of my truck but a diagram I found off Google. I don't know exactly how to get the image on this post but I am going to try the image button in the instructions here and give it a try. Anyway, in the diagram the crack is basically where the word "cylinder"...

    '01 sport; ps fluid leaking out a crack

    That's a rather interesting solution, drilling holes and filling with putty. I wonder if the strength of the hardened putty would withstand the pressure inside the line? I must admit, I thought of duct-taping the thing to get it to the shop. Still might.

    '01 sport; ps fluid leaking out a crack

    Yes, this line or pipe is laying horizontal to the ground. Also, it is probably about two feet long with a couple of smaller lines coming out of it. Rather expensive to have fixed I would guess.

    '01 sport; ps fluid leaking out a crack

    No lines coming from the crack area which is on the bottom of the line. The lines that are coming from this big line appear to be on the front of the big line towards each end of the line. I bet the crack is too long but we'll see. Thanks, Richard

    '01 sport; ps fluid leaking out a crack

    Thanks. I think it is aluminum after all. It is about an inch and a half to two inches in diameter. It is parallel to the ground. When I get under the front grill area of the truck the pipe is right above the black wide metal part of the frame. It that makes any sense. Unfortunately...

    '01 sport; ps fluid leaking out a crack

    in a cast iron like pipe running across the bottom of the truck. I am ignorant on auto repair so please bear with me. We began noticing hard steering in my daughter's '01 sport last week, 37k miles. I added more p/s fluid and it got better, but noticed there were still leaks all over the...
