Steering pump installed, air bled, and test run. Steering feels great, no leaks. Thanks guys for the input...

Rockauto.com had the lines... Thanks for the welcome... Bob Dyson Twin Mountain, NH

Lines on the rack itself. I replaced the lines from the pump and the pump reservoir tank about 18 months ago so there's been problems with this system previously. I picked up a remanufactured pump and will be installing it tomorrow. I'll make sure that I do a thorough job of bleeding the system and go from there. Bob Dyson Twin Mountain, NH

A steel line on my steering rack burst and I drove the truck (2010 1500 WT 154,000 miles) a couple of miles home without power steering - not easy. Then I let it sit about 2 weeks before I got it in the garage and replaced the rack steel lines (both), I noted that it was particularly more difficult to steer than when I drove it home. Once I got it all back together and attempted to bleed the system I couldn't move the steering wheel at all and the pump wasn't moving any oil. Can I rightly assume that I fried the whole system and need a new rack? Bob Dyson Twin Mountain, NH
