[QUOTE="rocfun, post: 34070, member: 115"] i had similar problems when i re-did my steering. it looks like we have a similar setup , same ram / pump/ etc. i changed everything as well on mine and went through about 5 gal of fluid as well. mine would turn great to the right but when you tried to turn left it would not turn or it would turn itself back to the right. i checked with a friend who works at a local hydraulic shop and he told me that the orbital was not aligned or sycronized (sorry can't remember the exact term) i know i had never heard of this but, if it is not assembled correctly it can make the orbital act like a pump intead of a valve directing the flow. i took it to him and and they had it back to me the next day. everyone i talked to had never heard of it and the orbital i had was brand new in the box, he said it is rare but if they are taken apart and not put back exactly right this can happen. and in my case it came this way from the factory. but on a good note if this is your problem once i got it back put it on 5 turns left 5 to the right and i have been driving ever since no problems at all. this may or may not be your problem but i thought i would through it out there. hope it helps [/QUOTE]
