as for the power steering fluid. thanks, i need to do some more research on that. but it felt like the steering was getting more and more loose as i drove, the tires were fine and actually not too hot to the touch!
when I drove from Tampa back to ND, there were a few occasions I hit 220.. but i was really on her.. and I have a huge single turbo. but I'd let her idle for a few minutes to cool down, and I never went up in temp... but then again I have a 34 row :P

I actually JUST changed my PS fluid... I was leaking some from the cooler because it was getting rather toasty.. so i replaced it with some better ATF fluid
