If the leak(s) isn't to bad you might want to try valvoline power steering fluid with stop leak. There have been people on this forum that have tried it and have experienced good results.

How many miles on your truck? If you at 100,000 miles plus then replaces all 3 hoses and do it right.
Some of the stop leak products work on piping and seals,not hoses. UNIVERSAL PRODUCTS MAKES THE BEST HYDRALIC STOP LEAK WHEN YOU FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS.
