Should I be able to hear the steering pump?
I have a new 06' Mega cab 4x4 and in a parking situation I can hear the power steering pump. Is this normal or should I have it checked?

I can't imagine you being able to hear the power steering pump over the cummins. I know in my old chevy the ps fluid got a little low and it made a whining noise kinda like having timing gears instead of a timing chain.
I would check the ps fluid level. If it's okay and still makes a noise then take it to the dealer.

mines doing it, and my steering box is "wet" so the dealer is replaceing it. take a look at your steering box, if it looks to be leaking a little get it replaced.
