Steering and shock noise
The truck is starting to make the I am about to hit 100000 miles noise.
Truck makes noise when I turn the wheel. Really only when I am doing under 5mph because the motor has to work harder. The fluid is full but I did add some Lucas after it started to make the noise.
Also I get a squeak from the front end over small bumps. It seems to be coming from both sides at the same time. I can lift the truck(off) by the fender about 2 inches and she squeaks on the way up and then on the way down.This happens on both sides.
Both seemed to appear at the same time.
"grease the front end" is better left not posted unless it comes with what to grease.

are the shocks origional? if so, i would start there... maybe lube the shock shafts (if you can get at them) and see what that does... if that works, new shocks may be in order..
as for the steering, the pump could be getting tired... i wouldnt add any additive because our trucks call for ATF+4 in the powersteering system... i'm not sure too many p/s additives meet the requirements of ATF+4
rack and pinion could be going too...

Mines not that kind of squeaking i dont think. Like sometimes its makes a noise and sometimes it dont. Like he said before i only hear it when i am either stopped or going very slow but sometimes i dont hear it at all, so no clue
have you changed shocks or anything out on the front recently?? Maybe a bad shock/bushings on the shock tower??
