1. The wheels turn fine right now that its on jackstands. There is 0 power steering while running and attempting to turn with the wheels on the ground.
2. Yeah, tried bleeding with everything connected, even started the motor and did lock-lock a bunch.
3. Steering box turns fine with everything connected and on jackstands. Its gotta be fluid flow not assisting.

I'm confused as to why theres no fluid going to the box. Its the first stop for fluid after the pump. Also, I think only the HD's got the hydro brakes.
