quick background of the issue....
the stock pump was leaking rather badly so i decided to replace it before my last wheelin trip. turned the wheels right and left while on jackstand for a good 5 minutes to purge any air out. went wheelin, and the pump pretty much ate itself up in half a day. figured that i got a crap reman pump and went to autozone and put in another to keep wheelin. did the same routine to purge air. now it steers, but only when revving the engine. at idle, the pump does not seem to be flowing enough. did i get another bad pump, or did the steering box get damaged when the pump blew out?
