2 weeks after replacing my hydroboost my power steering pump started leaking. It looks fairly straight forward to remove, it looks like the hoses into the pump may require a special tool to get them off. Any advice before I attempt the replacement?
 
What did you do? I don't know but this is one of those parts I'd pay more for new and prefer not to buy rebuilt. Most places will have rebuilt's. I THINK AGR is a good aftermarket brand but don't know. Factory parts seem to last a long time so AC Delco should be fine. I think the best practice is to drain then flush the old fluid out as much as possible and add an inline filter when anything breaks in the system. At minimum flush any contaminated fluid.
