Default Bleeding Power Steering Lines

I just finished installing my Weapon R Coolant and Power steering tanks. They look great BTW and I would recommend getting them.

But, I am having problems bleeding my Powering Steering lines. I tried adding more fluid manually into the lines, as well as driving like 12 laps around my block. And even with the weird looks I got the from the neighbors, it is still squealing.

Had anyone had this problem, and how did you fix it?

i might try staying still and steering left and right, full turns. also make sure your fluid stays topped off as you do this.
