Power Stering Pump Going Bad
I have a 2000 Ford F250 psd and im pretty sure the power steering pump going bad. when im driving it will get stiff at the steering wheel and will start to jerk left and right when driving. its really unsafe the way it's jerking so what would the best brand be and any instruction on changing it my self. thanks

Thanks for the reply. When i'm parked the steering wheel turns easliy. When i start driving the steering will gets slightly stiff and will jerk left then right a couple of times then stop. It sounds like my powersteering pump makes a loud whinning noise when this happens. i checked the levels and it was fine. so you think its the steering box valves. are they easily to change or should i say is the steering box easily changed.

Well the truck randomly does it. its not all the time. It will do it one or two times when i get started driving and then stop. It sounds compicated but im sure its the pump or box. I changed the ball joints 1 year ago and there is no play in the linkage or wheel. Like you said the pump makes a louder noise than usual when this happens.
