    I am a newly owner of a 05 t800 with a 565 cummins in it. I am filling all fluids and came across the power steering box with a line that runs up to a black cylinder that I assume is the power steering reservoir ? Am i right? It's on the drivers side of the motor . If I'm right why does one line go to the steering box then to the side of the motor right behind where the oil fill cap is at?
