I have a 97 2.2L Sunfire, and yesterday I put a new power steering pump on it, I bleed the system through the return hose and the front end made a little noise barely but a little, so anyway I checked for leaks all was good then I drove up town and the power steering fluid was leaking so I put more in it but pretty much leaked right out as soon as I started the car so anyway I drove it home with no power steering, today I replaced the o-ring that threads into the pump and then it wasn't leaking at all from that area where it was yesterday I even got it up to normal running temperature, but then I pull into my driveway, back into the yard at my parking space and the steering gets stiff again I check and sure enough no power steering fluid I fill it up have my girl start the car turn the wheel back and fourth and its draining somewhere on the passenger side, the car is too low for me to crawl under and if I put it on ramps I won't be able to tell where its leaking because it won't be safe to turn the wheel, so I would really like to know where to look for a leak under the passenger side I don't know the possible spots to even look and trouble shoot myself, so if any of you can help that would be awesome. Sorry the post is so long, thank y'all!

it sounds like it could be coming from the steering rack, the rack sits insiide the sub-frame and runs out to both wheels but that is the only part of the power steering system that goes to the passenger side,
