PS fluid problem

i don't understand what is wrong with my power stearing fluid.

After replacing the entire stearing gear assembly and control arm bushings, i replaced all of the tubes that connect to the power stearing pump, and my power stearing fluid level is low every two weeks or so.

Any ideas.

read my statement again.
If you're losing fluid, then it WILL be leaking somewhere.

either that or you never bled it properly to begin with.

as matt said, you must have missed something.
maybe a loose fitting?
maybe a defective hose or pump.

I took another look at it and i think it may be the pressure or return hose.
