Steering takes off

M55.4
SN# G190018
When driving and you start turning the steering wheel tries to take off quickly and finish the turn until it deadheads. Not so much as it tries to jerk it out of your hands but if you aren't holding on to it firmly that could easily happen. The direction of the turn doesn't matter so it does it both ways. I don't have a service manual so I don't have any pressure specs. Any help is appreciated.

You manage to fix your truck?
I would check the tank return hose from the steer orbital valve.
If there is not enough flow to tank, you get those symptoms.
