I have a leek in my power steering reservoir on my 2002 MH F53 Chassis, I removed it and went to the ford dealer only to be told it is no longer available. Came home and been searching the net for new one, No luck so far. Any hel in locating one would be greatly appreciated.

I've had good luck by first obtaining the factory part number, then running it through Google. Lots of aftermarket manufacturers out there and you would probably find the one you're looking for. I've also found connections to replacement part numbers that are backwards compatible.
Sure worth a try.

No such luck, I have Ford part number F81D3531BC with no luck, Might need to try to patch mine but would rather find a new one.

I had my Ford v10 MH serviced at a certified Ford truck repair center. Those guys where amazing as they have knowledge pertaining to situations just like yours. I'm sure there's a replacement pump that would bolt right in, but finding it will maybe take the help of someone who runs this gauntlet every day.
The v10 is pretty common in Ford medium duty trucks, so maybe a truck service center could help.

X2 on the Ford truck repair center. I have an F53 and have to keep telling myself ... it's a truck with a MH body.

Well have you asked if a new pump comes with a reservoir? I would ask if there was one that would work as a replacement. I then would look at repairing the old one. What is it made of?
PS I would look in a local junk yard I would think a V10 is a V10. I would take the old one to compare.
Good luck

It has a remote reservoir that sets next to the air cleaner and it does not come with the pump. Being it sets next to the air cleaner in the front of the MH it would be one of the first victims in a front end collision and I have not found a junk yard that has one as of yet. Going monday to see if I can get it fixed or have one built.
