Noise when turning.

The truck is making a grinding noise when turning left, it sounds like it is in the front right side. Any ideas?

Stock tires or aftermarket? How many miles? 4wd hubs locked? Lots of possibilities.

Everything is stock, 25700 miles.
It only does it when making a left and the higher the speed the lauder it does it.

Need to isolate where the noise is coming from. There was a TSB for the power steering gear. I believe some hoses had to be replaced to correct it.

The truck is still under the 3 yr/ 36,000 mile bumper to bumper warranty. Let the dealership figure it out.

Are you sure its not a turbo back? Mine is a turbo back and the bigger pipe going down the back of the motor was rubbing the firewall and making a racket. I had to shove the firewall back to get it away from the downpipe. When I would turn in some instances would cause the racket.

Could be the problem.....maybe.
