squeek

when I turn to the Right I hear a squeek and when I stop turning the wheel the squeek stops. I just had all of the steering linkage replaced about 5 months ago and the tie-rod are lubed and good. I dont know what else????

thanks

jb

When you say turning, are you talking about rolling or turning the steering? I don't know if they would squeek or not, I didn't hear mine when they went out but felt them during an inspection of my steering system.

when I am turning the steering wheel it squeeks but when i stop turning the steering wheel it stops. when in rolling w/ the wheel turned I dont hear a squeek unless I turn the wheel more. So basically as long as I and not turning to the right it doesnt squeek but It is annoying

not always. They usually start out this way. They continue to squeak when they are really worn/dry. Have a friend / co-worker turn wheel while you crawl under truck and listen. good luck, Brian
