My 23 is making noise now, checked entire front end and the noise is between the steering box and column. Hopefully the TSB will cover it as I am beyond warranty now.

Steering column/shaft clunk noise and feel
I have a 2021 F350 7.3 that I have been hearing and feeling noises and thumps in the steering for over a year now. It doesn't affect the steering control but it certainly feels and sounds bad. I finally took it to my dealer for routine service and asked them to look at the noise. The service manager told me they have replaced a few Super Duty steering shafts and columns. They felt mine needed a shaft and would be $575 installed. I have owned 12 Ford and 14 Chevrolet trucks and have never replaced a steering shaft in any of them. So today I called Ford Customer Service and asked them to pay for it. I was hoping for some gesture of goodwill on their part. Silly me- they said "No, you are out of warranty". Tonight I read about a pending recall for a small number of Super Duty steering columns that were improperly made by their Korean supplier. Loss of steering control is possible. This makes me distrust Ford's quality a little, and I'm not impressed with their lack of interest in helping a customer.

My FIL's '23 had that same clunk, got it replaced under warranty.
If there is a pending recall that gets sent out, and your truck falls under the recall, and you've already had the work done, save your receipts - Ford will reimburse you for the cost once the recall is active.
