Guys, 7000 ford was giving steering problems, would turn easy then get hard to turn so I changed the steering pump out flushed the air out. Worked much better, about 10 hours of use getting the same problems. Turns fairly easy until it gets warmed up then its like no power at all. Put the FEL down and lifted the front end off the ground removed the power steering cap and turn the wheel left and right several time quickly. Let it back down and it helped it out a little, also saw a fluid coming from around the power assist motor on the steering column. Could it be sucking air in where the leak is and causing problems or the power assist motor(on the steering column?
