Today we were working on my friends truck, installing new tires/wheels and were fixing a rubbing issue we had on the stock flares. We kept the steering at full lock for 45 mins in order to get working space inside the fender, and then suddenly smelled burning and there was a leak from the power steering fluid box/reservoir, which I believe dripped onto the engine manifold and burnt.
Now there is no longer power steering, or mostly gone and there is a squeal when turning. We removed the skid plates and the steering rack was still in one piece, the lines feeding to the rack seemed fine. My friend is gona have his truck towed to the dealer tomorrow for diagnostic.
Any info to what could be the problem?
