Default power steering pump?
when the truck is warm, at idle i have no power steering unless i rev the motor. nothing is whining, binding or leaking. i checked the fluid everything is in there, the belts are tight. any suggestions?

Change the filter. While you're at it change the fluid.

You can go to your truck service station, and A service engineer will give you right answer or change the belt.

Mine made straining noises too, until I changed the filter :P

Could be the pump as well, but the filter is quick and easy.

You should identify this truck to those that attempt to help you.
