There is no real difference between ATF and Power steering fluid. I've
used ATF in power steering in a number of vehicles with no problems,
however, you may want to go to a jyard and see about picking up a non
leaking Power Steering box, because they generate a lot of line pressure
and if one goes out, you may be in trouble. It's cheaper to fix it now,
than later
