If you can't find the leak, check the rubber spacers in between each line. If they get brittle or damaged in any way the hard lines could touch and the vibrations will crack them... speaking from personal experience. I also wouldn't ever ditch the ACE, I'd rather just keep fixing/servicing it, it'll feel nice to have a linked truck that wont drive like one.
The post above you says NOT to use ATF (Auto Trans Fluid) btw.

The owners manual says "PAS fluid or ATF (to a certain spec which eludes me right now)"
EDIT: The RAVE workshop manual says:
Where I live we never get temperatures below 0° C so I have ATF in my systems.
EDIT: The RAVE workshop manual says:
ACE fluid
Where ambient temperature falls below -20° C (-4°F), use only Texaco cold climate power assisted steering fluid PSF 14315.
Where ambient temperature remains above -20° C (-4° F), use either Texaco cold climate power assisted steering fluid , Dexron 11 or Dexron 111 non-synthetic fluid.
