Powersteering/Brake problem

Hi I have a 2003 F-250 6.0 powerstroke. I have change the powersteering pump,gearbox,hydroboost and a couple lines. All this because i kept going throw powersteering pumps so i got tired of it and replaced it all and clean out and checked all other lines. But I have bleed the system I thought but now i only have steering when i rev the truck up. At idle the truck has no steering and the brake pedal pulsates. At the end of my rope here any help would be appreciated.

Did you use a MityVac Ford PS adapter + vacuum pump to bleed the system? If not, it’ll take a couple of days worth of driving to get the air out.
