was backing up wheels turned all the way to right snaped pwr steering pump shaft, went to napa bought another pump insatlled working good. wife took to work backed out of pkng spot wheels all the way to the right same thing snapped pwr steering pump shaft. i do have 20inch wheels instead of factory 17. could it be a blocked return line not letting the pump bypass work? 2 lines off the pump go to brake booster and one goes to some cooler in front of radiator. which is return and is this my problem. everyone i talk to says they have never heard of this and one said return line. looking for some advice,although im getting quick at changing it out

That is odd. Are you forcing the steering?
