I've had this power steering leak for the past few weeks and it's starting to get worst... problem is there's fluid ALL over and I can't seem to pinpoint the leak. Any suggestions?

No trick really. I recently found my failed water pump bearing seal using UV dye. It's the bees knees of finding leaks and it isn't just for refrigerant leaks.

Clean up everything as best you can really well. Next time you go to add PS fluid add an ounce or less of dye. You can buy the dye at any auto parts chain. You want oil compatible dye. They make dye for refrigerant, coolant, and oils. A day or so later start inspecting with a UV light you can buy off the same rack. The lights are expensive though. You'll spend $30 on dye and a light, most of it on the light. You'll see a nice bright radioactive looking glowing trail that takes you right to the leak source.

Or borrow a blacklight from a pothead friend.

No tricks really. Only trick I know of is this. The outer boots are made of plastic type rubber material almost.U could make a tiny pinhole on each boot to see if anything is gonna come out of it.If fluid starts to drip form a tiny pinhole then you know on of the seals of the rack has failed as there shouldnt be any p/s fluid on those boots at all.
