power steering leakage :(

[accordftw]

to be more specific its where the gearbox and my driver side axle connect which has a worn out ball joint seems good tho just a bit torn rubber i dont hear any clunk or grinding noise only a leak could it be by replacing the ball joint? is it normal for the ball joint to have power steering fluid in it if it wasn't torn out ???????? also other affect cars seems to pull either way on a uneven pavement but its not the alignment since it does goes straight on a flat pavement? cars failing omfg#$%^[IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG]
from wht i seen its coming from inside the ball joint rubber its really hard to see exactly the leakage start point

no its the internal seals in your R&P. Putting a new boot or inner tierod won't help. You've either got to rebuild the R&P w/ all new seals...about 60-65 bucks using Honda parts or get a Remanufactured one (easier option) for around 200 w/ your core. I got a NAPA one and put that in, it comes w/ new inner tierods so if your inner's are worn...might as well get a reman'd one.

hey did you end up fixing your power steering? I have a power steering leak too except i've been searching and searching and everyone else's problem is involves the rack or rubber hoses. I've been leaking for a while but finally figured out its ps fluid cause my reservoir is emptying fast and turning when driving is becoming harder. I raised the car and found a metal line soaked in fluid and completely rusted, its in the picture from this thread, at the bottom of the pic theres a little pan? with a hole in the bottom (this is all full of fluid for me and one of the lines on top of it is the problem) My question really is if i can just replace the metal line or do you guys think i have to replace more?
