Was trying to move my front end in like the good Burgie showed me, beside now not getting my darn tie rods to move ( they needed replaced anyway) when I turn it hard to the right or left a grey looking like muddy liquid is coming out of the power stearing pump up around the pully.. If not turning hard no issue,, Can not figure why this looks like greay mud and what needs to be fixed

Yeah it sounds like your fluid needs changing anyways. There is a large I believe 1 1/4 drain plug to drain under ps reservoir on right side. Flush it out and Dr Allis says refill with hydraulic oil. Then I guess find another way to loosen your front end. When new the components cooperated better.
