Back home from a road trip and a power steering question.

Back home after about 4000 mile road trip with the Bird. Despite our
minor mechanical glitches, enjoyed the trip immensely. Most unusual
part was when my wife was in the bathroom as we were driving down the
road and she opened the screen to close the window. In flew a bat
which was roosting between the screen and window. Needless to say, it
caused a little excitement. We spent a number of hours in its company
before it departed about 300 miles from its home.

I do have a question. How does a person access the power steering
hoses at the steering box? My Bird has had a power steering leak
since it was new. It doesn't take a genius to figure out why. The
return hose and reservoir to pump hose just have barbed fittings and a
single hose clamp. Dextron just seeps out. I'd like to replace them
because they make a mess of things underneath.
