Possible Power steering fluid leak

[roger2015]

as I'm waiting for the next day to come to get additional parts for impeller replacement I thought I would do some routine maintenance on the ole girl, checking fluid I noticed power steering fluid was gone.... Yes empty, not sure where but looked in bilge and there is some fluid in there but not a whole reservoir amount...any ideas???? Traced lines down and none of them are freshly wet?????

i am assuming that was it, I. Went and got a flexable light got into the fetal position and found the hose coming from the ram to the cooler and it appeared to have clear fluid around the hose where it connected to the cooler so put a socket to it and it was loose.... Thanks for the info scoflaw..... I'll let you know
