Weird issue with brake pedal feel and PS pump

Does that filter come apart and you can change filter elements? 

I wouldn't rinse anything unless it's SS mesh.

Ask yourself the question would you wash the oil filter and reuse it? I sure wouldn't.

Yes, that's it in the picture all apart. There is no number on the filter, so there probably is no way to identify it. I went ahead and installed the new one and changed out the fluid to Red Line synthetic.

Thats the same PS fluid I use too.  Seems to be good stuff...

Thanks, that's good to know. I will report back after I get some seat time.

Since the first flush. If it wasn't for the external rusting of the input shaft on my OEM steering box I'd still have it today. Still working with my OEM power steering pump. Zero wear was inside the steering gearbox and very clean with zero sludge.

Hauled a load of cinder block today, I think I am going to like this new fluid. The truck even seems to drive a little better once I get up to speed. Seems to come off center easier, it used to be really tight. At slow speed it seems about the same, probably the 285 tires.

 

I was surprised at how thin the fluid was, about like 0 weight. It should work well this winter and flow through the cooler and filter better.
