Steering noise
There is a TSB on this, but i am unsure if this is what i have or not. If you have your wheels straight, and you turn them to the left to lock, there is a funny noise/vibration that happens once per revolution of the steering wheel, and it only does it for about 2 revs, then diminishes. I have felt the column while turning, and you cant really feel it there, so it must be outside the truck. I have lubes the little rubber grommet that the shaft goes thru in the firewall, so i dont think its that. It also doesnt do it first thing in the morning, you have to drive it a little.
What else can this be? How can i pinpoint its origin? You can feel it in the springs, tie rod, wheels, etc...so its hard to pinpoint. Can this be the steering box somehow?
