Hey guys I think i have a leak somewhere in my power steering system, or just a problem somewhere, because it is very stiff and my fluid continually is getting low, and it has just gotten worse over the past few days. Are there any general areas that are prone to leak on the j30 with the Power steering? Thanks for your help guys.

My 93 had a leak just below the rez. There is a hard pipe under there and one of the seals where the pipe connected was leaking.

Does anyone figure it out what happen when you have a stiff steering on a 94 J30? Or perhaps i missed the solution entirely, please advise, Thanks.

Make sure you have enough power steering fluid. You may have a leak in the system, causing the problem. Check for leaks, and replace any leaking hoses.

It could also be the power steering pump.
