help
I have a 1995 jeep Cherokee. I have a 3 inch lift and am sitting on 31 inch tires. but my question is that when I turn my wheel all the way or most the way to the left my power steering starts to leak. What could this be ? is it the pump or the hoses?

Mine did the same thing, small needle hole in the pressure hose which allowed fluid to squirt under a turn.
If thats the case get ya one from the parts store and swap it in..takes maybe an hour.
I had to remove my rad hose to get any sort of turn on the nut that threads it on the steering box.
Be super careful not to cross thread or strip out the threads on the gear box.

A crows foot wrench really helps.
I'm pretty sure power steering fluid will burn if its hot enough. So you may wanna get on this project sooner sooner Than later. Lol
