Hi Guys
Transit is progressing well. Ended up pretty much removing the windscreen post and replacing with fibreglass. Looks a million dollars.
Can anyone advise what power-steering fluid to top up with please? Is it just normal ATF?
Also my power-steering pump is leaking - I assume from the output shaft. Is this a common problem? It's done 75k miles - (Turbo Diesel 1995).
Cheers guys.

Thanks Jim - You're not helping! ;o)
It looks amazing - you couldn't tell it has been replaced (apart from that it's the part of the van in perfect condition!) - think it's a sign of a mis-spent past playing with boats.
