Just happened to me scared the hell out of me fortunately, I was going slow but almost hit the Jack-in-the-Box. Fortunately O’Reilly’s was right there. I got the parts and I’m home. Should get it fixed pretty quick here in the 115° heat and Phoenix. thanks for a great video.

I did just find a video on how to bleed the system. That was very good. Apparently you’re supposed to raise it up on jackstands with the engine off do five cycles back-and-forth on the steering wheel all the way left all the way right and then four pumps on the brakes and apparently you have to do that like 90 times maybeand then when you start the vehicle if that amount of fluid goes down at all, that means you still have air in the line

Did mine today. Both hoses and the pump while I was at it. All went well. Huge thanks for the video. I could have figured it out but it went a lot easier using your video as a preview. Runs like new!!!!

[@Tim2Wheels]

Glad it helped. I'm glad you're back up and running.

[@usethenoodle]

Thanks Tim. Mine let go tonight while backing my small boat into the garage. Fluid everywhere. I'll be tearing her down in the morning. I appreciate your video. I too have a metallic Red/black F-250 Super Duty Lariat with the 7.3, extend cab, 8' bed . I love it a lot. I think while I'm at it, I'm going to do the pump as well. I'm at 123,000 miles. Again, thanks for the video.

I loss mine yesterday, not a mechanic, but relieved to find it's pretty straight forward. Huge Thanks!

Hey thank you so much for your video. My 2000 F350 with 7.3 L Powerstroke diesel also had a simultaneous brake and power steering failure, and now I know why😊. Thank you for diagnosing this problem and for your very helpful video.

[@josh-zw8wy]

mine went out 20 minutes ago. already got the line off and a new one on the way. thanks bud. big help.

[@InTheGardenandTheBlessings]

Wow! So Very glad you stayed safe in the midst of this ordeal

[@scottbaker4314]

Great video I always tie a string to any line that I pull out that way I can pull the new line back in with the string. But all Ford trucks 1984 to 2012 use MERCON® V fluid. In power steering

Hi Tim,
I miss your T2W KLR videos, but still following your channel and enjoying the new series.
Thanks for sharing.

Hello Clive, I miss the KLR also. It was a a good bike. I love my GSA but being a new bike, there's not much to do to it.
You might be interested in a new Project Bike series coming up. I'm about to start a rebuild of a 2001 Suzuki DR-Z400. I'm looking forward to that.
Thanks for continuing to follow my channel.

Yes very helpful! I happen to be in the middle of the desert and this just happened. I noticed with the steering on the trip. Was like what was that. And driving, the steering the steering got stiff. The next turn is going to be down hill canyon. So yeah glad it happened here. Again thanks for the info. I have tools just need the part...
