Default Power steering fluid loss

I am open for any suggestions, 06 Heavy half. A week ago I lost all of my power steering fluid, left half of it in a customers driveway and the other half in my drive way. Filled it up that night and haven't lost any since?????????

Thanks,
Steve.

Have you climbed underneath to see where it may have came from?

I have not, figured if it's not leaking I probably wouldn't find it.

The rubber hose feed on my 04 is a horrible design and if the clamp is just down too far on the neck you will know it and loose it all quickly. Ask me how I know. I would still crawl under there and at least clean it all up and look because it happened for a reason and will happen again. could be a seal or anything

Finally had a chance to pull it in this afternoon, It appears it is coming from one of the lines to the power steering cooler. Still have to do some research, but if I have to get in there I will replace them both.
