Power Assist problems

1973 F250 4x4 with the Garrison control valve. Everything worked fine before but the pump and cylinder were leaking.

I replaced everything but the control valve and now get this wheel wobble at low speed on some turns. Air bleed with vacuum, wheels up, 1000 times and still it is there. Not all the time. I don't think I am getting air in the system as it holds vacuum, wheels up rotation, engine on rotation. Drives fine other than the low speed wobble on slow turns and not in each direction and not all the time. Power seems fine wheels o. The ground. No mistake on the wobble and the suspension, ball joints, etc was all fine before. Just a leaky system.

I rotated the HP line to be as low as it could with the bend and tightened everything up.

any ideas? The New Rock auto Pump? Collapsing/kinking return line?Air? (Not getting any froth and level remains)
