Default 1992 H1 Powersteering box puked on me

went out to the hummer and it looked like the car puked out a few gallons of power steering fluid at the front driver side of the engine. it was still leaking out before it was dark but it appeared to be coming out from the box. From the top of the engine, i couldnt see any wet spots so definitely from the side or bottom of the steering box.

we run a shop so it will be on the rack in a few hours to get a better look. however, we havent worked on a hummer steering box before. whats the typical wear items and solutions? rebuild kits? any common issues like the input shaft seal bursting a leak and just a simple fix?

thanks guys

Yep. All tied together. Lose PS pressure you lose brake pressure.
