My 2004 Tahoe was hard to turn left with a whining sound. So I changed the power steering well after it was hard to turn right but no whining sound. I went ahead and replaced the hose from power steering pump and the gearbox. Still wis hard to turn right. Next I replaced the gearbox. Now when Tahoe is moving its kind of easy to turn right. I noticed that when I come to a complete stop and turn right it turns easy but when I come to an intersection where I don't need to stop and am turn right it gets hard while slowing down. So what I noticed is when I have foot on brake it is when it is hard to turn right. If anyone knows could it be the hydroboost that's causing the problem?

Found out it was the rebuilt gearbox that was the problem since there was no whining from power steering. Went to the pickapart and bought a used one and it steers perfect now.
