You did check your power steering fluid level, I assume.
P235's on a 55 400 I'm able to steer easily 1-handed on a garage floor while not moving. Don't remember the R## but they were only at 24PSI, if that. Power steering was repaired around 5 years ago, from being leaky.
What was repaired? The pump?
My system drips a little from the control valve and ram cylinder, both of which are fairly new. I think leaks are just a part of life with this style of system. The fluid level is definitely fine. I have flushed, refilled, and replaced the filter. The hoses are all new. It's possible the pump has low output or the ram piston seal is bypassing, but it's easier to believe that it's the tires.
