1989 Jeep Cherokee Power Steering Leak

celshot

I'm looking at buying a 1989 Cherokee Limited, 168K. Most things were OK except that the power steering was noisy, and, after the drive, fluid was POURING on the ground. I couldn't determine the exact cause except that it was the power steering system. How difficult is it to replace?

How difficult is it to replace WHAT? The pump, high pressure hose, steering gear, or low pressure return hose? Start by having the vehicle hoisted and inspected to determine the source of the leak.
