STIFF STEERING 850 1995

Steering has gone stiff when first turning wheel. Once it starts to turn it gets easier. Will not return to center, needs to be steered back. Stiff in both directions. Fluid is good. Hissing noise from pump when steering but I believe this is normal. Louder sound when steering reaches end of stroke and goes over relief. Belt looks OK. Running engine at higher RPM's does not help. Pump, rotary valve or steering rack? Which is the most likely suspect?
