Loud squeal on sharp turns?

I can't figure out where this noise is coming from. Whenever I take a sharp turn, like in parking lot for example, my truck squeals like crazy. I can't tell if it's body mount bushings, ball joints, or something else. Has anyone had any experience with this? I can post up a video of it if need be.

If you aren't moving or moving slower is it louder than it would be if you're moving at a decent speed? If so it could be your power steering.

Power steering pump belt squeal when your knuckles hit the mechanical stops. Only squeal I know of that is obvious. Would need much more detail to come to any other conclusion.

Tire squeal is normal on low speed sharp turns (like in a parking lot) with Twin I-Beam

Here's a short video of it. It doesn't only occur at full lock. Also, the noise started about 6 months ago on the right side and it has gotten louder and louder. Now both sides make a lot of noise. The right is still worse, however.
