Squeeky steering

99 F-350 4x4 dually

Steering wheel squeeks when turned.
Sounds like its coming from up high near the ignition?

Is there anyway to oil or grease anything in the steering column?

Mine has a faint "sqeeeek squeeeek" when I turn my wheel also. I've gotten used to it and it no longer bothers me, but my passengers always seem to bring it up.
I haven't tried to fix it yet, and it's been squeekin for about two years.

Same here! Although it's not all the time, pretty much only if I crank it trying to make a U-turn
