In your #5 post you stated your problem is at all speeds, yet in your #12 post you state it's fine above 2,000rpm. Which is it? You also state in your #1 post how to tell if your power steering pump is going out, then you post in #12 post that your mechanic friend taught you how to diagnose p/s pump. Then you state that the steering shaft is bad. No offense but if you want our help, then decide your gonna change a different part anyway, and know the solution, why bother the forum members. We have each over 30-50 years experience diagnosing Ford vehicles. As the old saying goes, if you don't want the advice don't ask, or at the very least keep your diagnosis and questions consistent. Remember we all do this free of charge. Moose.
