Question Fluid Drip

I was under the truck changing the oil this week and while I was laying there I started checking things out. First I began looking for grease fittings found two of them, tie rod ends. Are there more?

Then to my surprise I noticed red fluid drops hanging from the bottom of the steering gear box. Can't really tell where the fluid is coming from, bottom of power steering pump is a little damp, the gear box is completely damp with drops. I wiped them away and have begun to check daily no more so far.

Am planning to get to dealer soon for some tsb's and this issue.

Has this happen to anyone? Any advice, comments, suggestions? All will be appreciated

Leaking Power Steering Pump

I also had leaks from my pump. Checked with dealer, they replaced it with new pump, no questions. I thought a new O-ring would do the trick. However, it seems like this problem has turned up on many trucks.

Talk to your dealer, I suspect they will fix it under warranty.
