Went to move some stuff to my new pad yesterday and my buddy noticed a puddle under the truck. Turned out to be powersteering fluid and its leaking from the hydraulic booster behind the master cylinder. Is there a seal or oring that could have gone bad or am I gonna have to buy and entire hydraulic booster for 232 buckaroos???:bang This minor set back cost a trip to the beach. :kick:
 
The most common leak from that area is the vacuum seal. Are you sure it's not engine oil? When mine went oil was constantly running out of that area.
Here's a link to a kit to fix it.

Engine oil? I'm sure its not engine oil. It pisses out when I hit the brakes and is coming from the hydraulic booster.
