I heard high pitch every time I turn the steering. When I checked I see fluid on the floor.. and on one axle and on one hose.
Return line was changed 2 years ago and it looks good and dry.
I wonder if pressure line is leaking.
Looks like its not the pressure line. it seems like there is one more line behind pressure/return line connector(where those two connect to axle on the driver side) This 3rd line then run over pipe which connects driver side axle to passenger side.. this 3rd line then feed into passenger side axle(or close to it.)
When i run hand on it its all filled with oil.
Does some one know what that line is called ?
I don't picture from my truck but it seems like " power steering hydraulic transfer line"

more update .. now I think fluid is leaking from the the steering gear... its flowing all 3 tubes going downwards. Which are pressure line and 2 pinion lines.
Fluid not climbing up on the line which goes/come to/from reservoir.
I don't want to take whole rack off.. any one ? any ideas where to start ?

Problem fixed. Return line metal part was cracked. It leaking with continues uninterrupted... I think its called laminar-flow.
New line fixed the problem.. But now i ended up with a new unused pressure line.. and a pulley removal tool
