Replacing the Power Steering Fluid - Help...

Hi All,

I would like to chage the oil in the power steering on my 1998 Grand Cherokee.
The Haynes manual does not tell me where to drain the Oil from, it talks about how to replace and bleed it, but nothing on where to drain it from.
Can any one help?
If anyone has the method please post it.

Thanks

Markie in the UK.

You could suction it out of the reservoir or loosen the lowest hose to the res. I have to ask "why"?

I use a baster found on the cheap at your local grocer to suction it out.

Pure preventive maintenance is the reason behind wanting to change the fludid the car done 14oK and I feel fresh oil won't do any harm and might improve things.
