Well nothing lost on flush & screen clean, good maintenance. Is your hard steering at idle? If so, a good suspect might be the air control valve on the pump. It is designed to give a "boost" to the steering at low rpms.

it does puff a bit of white smoke on startup so it probably is bad... but the power steering is hard all the time even when driving. would that be the culprit then? i think i got a spare one on my spare ps pump.

When driving the p/s stiffens up as you drive, but I don't know what degree you're experiencing. If you got a spare on hand... I say go for it. Especially with the puff of smoke on start up. Let us know how it works out for you.
