    Looking for some wrecking yards with older peterbilts. I need a replacement power steering reservoir. The one on this truck has a leak on the center port, and upon closer inspection, has been repaired once before. Would like to see if I can find a good used or an aftermarket retrofit that will work. Failing that I will try to have this one repaired. I really try to avoid repairing something a second time if I can.

    May help to let folks know what area you're looking in. Decent yard in Terre Haute, IN right off I-70.

    Also, have a look at eBay. And there are several used truck part places online.

    I am in southern illinois south of Effingham. The reservoir is a 3 port unit that is run off of what I think is a Vickers V10 3 port pump. I see that Nelson used to make replacement reservoirs but seem to no longer be available. It would help if I knew a bit more about the OEM part such as fluid capacity, etc.

    Checking online search engines for parts showed one rusty chrome one that was a Luberfiner aftermarket part. Still looking.

    I will call the Terre Haute place, that is close. Have a name? Thanks!

    142180447640 $250 + 31.50 shipping. Have you thought about using a regular reservoir and taping it for the third line?
