Anyone else have the Maher power steering setup? https://mahermetalworks.com/shop-ma...cts/2g-dsm-power-steering-line-relocation-kit
Since I put it on it wiped out a pump and a brand new rack shortly after. Them pump just blew the o-ring separating high and low so I don't think it was the reason for the rack issues. The system cavitates really really bad so I'm assuming that is what is causing all the problems. Or just the added pressure on the old components. Or it's fine I just got unlucky. I tried getting ahold of them with no response. Just curious if others are having problems and possibly more engineer brained folks could think of a solution rather then just going back to the oem setup. She's pretty much a show and car and coffee car now so simple and clean is the goal here.
 
You could have had an air pocket or bad/going pump to begin with. I would check the install and bleed the system with the wheels raised(lock to lock). Also loose fittings and leaks can cause cavitation.

This is how I originally bled the system but I will double check the lines again thanks for the tip. I'll have to get a video of the reservoir and the velocity in which the fluid is coming in. I think it moves so fast it sucking air. I'll place a baffle of some sort for the next rack.
