Odd steering noise
I have a 1992 F150 XLT that has steered really sloppily in the past, and I recently had the tie rods replaced. Anyways, the thing that gets me is now whenever I turn the steering wheel more than a quarter of the way in either direction, it makes a squeaking/squealing noise. It sounds sorta like I'm thinking the steering wheel is just squeaky and some WD40 will take care of it? Any help greatly appreciated!

My truck makes the exact same noise, at first i thought it was due to lack of power steering fluid, but then i added and still made the noise. Then i posted a thread similar to this and was told by several viewers that its probably the radius arms

Sadly the Only way to get rid of that noise is new radius arms

I have that feeling too. As of now the noise sometimes is there, sometimes is not. I figure I'll bite the bullet and get some new ones when I can't stand the noise anymore. These old trucks are reliable but they sure do require a fair deal of maintenance to be kept in top condition. Thank you for the enlightenment
