Flush P.S. System

How is the best way to flush the P.S, system on my '95 2500? It's a 2-WD truck. I put a RedHead gear box in it a year ago and I want to keep the fluid nice and clean.

I just remove and replace about seven times over a few weeks depending on mileage with a turkey baster. After a few transfusions it's back to pink.

Thanks Danderson, I've done it that way, but I was hoping for an easier way that replaced more of the fluid.

I don't know if there is anything easier than that, as anything else I think would involve removing lines.

I wouldn't mind loosening a hose, but when I go the turkey-baster route I always jack up the front of the truck and then turn the wheels 2-3 turns both Left and Right between every baster full, so it's time consuming. Then too I never feel I am doing a complete fluid change that way.
