Stearing issue (HELP)

[G~Rod]

When I finished covering my raptor in the mud, I could hardly turn the wheel right. When I got up to about 25 mph the steering seemed fine... As I slowed and turned steering got very tight again. Any ideas??? Bad steering pump? 2013 with low miles.

Look underneath to see if anything is stuck there (like mud, rocks, sticks)

Go hit a couple SMALL puddles

Probably blew a hose. Just guessing. Get under there and look.

Crawled under... Looks like I'm dripping fluid on the drivers side of the skid plate... Could not track the leak though.. Going to take the skid plate off in the morning...

Turns left fine? Reddish fluid? No whining?

probably busted the reservoir like so many have.

Moved to Problems and Questions. I have not heard of anyone busting the reservoir. Several have fragged racks, though.

When at speed it turns fine when turning from a stop its like steering a battle ship, very low whining when turning...

Check your power steering reservoir. I have the RPG one and during off-roading it will release fluid due to the heat and pressure out the release valve on the front drivers side down the frame and left front as you described.
