wouldn't have thought so, nowhere near anything connected to the steering. when you say the steering went, do you mean it doesn't turn at all (like locked up or something) or just hard to turn?

check your power steering fluid , may just be a pipe off..

Just hard to turn as tho i had run out off diesel plus a knocking sound under the truck.

Power steering belt snapped or come off?

[logey79]

check fluid anyway, but if its accompanied by a knocking then something else is more likely the problem.

[Mitsy]

ye but would there be a knocking under the truck when it is stood still but just ticking over.

If the belt is wrapped around something, or the pulley may be loose or busted,

answer to that one's in the question! women just don't listen!

the answer a bird wants to something like this is YES! it is entirely the fault of some man, somewhere, and it's going to cost a fortune because of some other man somewhere else.

If it's just a belt gone, then you may be able to get one from halfrauds, or one that will fit at least, you may find that any toyota p/s belt will fit, or a universal one maybe?

You were all right lads had a look this morning and the steering belt has broke, darn it.
