I would try replacing the Mater Cylinder. I had this problem on my 02, and replaced it, now runs fine. Very easy fix.

Likely something with your hydroboost - hydroboost unit, power steering pump, or lines. Is your vacuum pump working properly?

Not likely. If he was just having brake problems, maybe, but since he is having steering problems, it is likely related to the P/S system or hydrobooster.
 
if you have no steering at all or brakes at all I would lean towards the ps pump and vacuum pump, but if you have brakes but can't steer or can steer but when you apply brakes you have no brakes then I'd lean towards the hydroboost---I could steer but had no brakes or I would have brakes but couldn't steer when my hydroboost went out....good luck -----chris
