last week after some 6" rainfall I was wading the truck through a few flooded areas (up to 12" of water) and noticed that anytime I got in the deep stuff (trying to keep the wake down by going slow) my steering would get reeeeeally heavy like I had no power steering. Is this a common thing or is there something I can waterproof for a little more protection?
other then that it swam OK at one point with water to the top of the rims, with only some odd highreving and sputters |

Maybe thepower steering belt got wet and was slipping?

It is common, at least with my R50, for water to get up by the power steering V-belt and cause it to slip if it's not good and tight..and it is usually the first to squeek, too (the power steering v-belt)

well I guess thats a releif...a belt is easy enough to replace and tighten....was worried I had some more serious issues. Never thought of that. Thanks
