The power steering fluid is the same as the transmission fluid. You will probalby need about two quarts.

Brake fluid full system flush is recommended every 2 years.

Power steering flush maybe every 5 years? But every year you should suck out as much of the old fluid as possible and top it off with new ATF fluid.
