I'm in the process of installing a Redneck Ram into my 2000XJ. I ran outa time and just put the modified box back in and didn't hook up the lines to the ram yet (ram also not installed.) The two fittings on the steering box are capped so as not to lose fluid. I poured fluid into the pump reservoir and started the motor and cycled the steering back and forth. Then added more fluid. Now the pump howls like a banshee. The fluid level is okay and the box turns real well. Why does the pump howl so bad now as it didn't before? Did the pump burn out that fast before the fluid was refilled? It was only about 30 seconds?
