Hard Steering

[forumpete58]

Not too long ago I replaced my power steering pump. Lately my truck's been really hard to steer; I checked the power steering fluid numerous times and there's more than enough. Any ideas what could be causing this?
Thanks!

Try turning yer wheel FULL left and right, bump it against the stops lightly, 4-5 times. Doing that will purge any air out of the system from yer pump replacement. Re-check yer PS fluid level and you should be, good to go.

JMHO, my 06 doesnt steer as nicely as my 95 did dead stop lock to lock.
