Default Steering question

I noticed the steering would lock or bind in a sharp turn if you have to turn fast, for example counter steering. ( First v-8 and under 25). I recently played chicken with a small tree, I turned my bumper into a W and ironicly bullseyed the grill cross. I had the frame checked and it is straight and there was no noticeable damage to the steering. I am terrified about this because I have always heard steering and transmission problems on those years, this is the first dodge I have ever owned so I am very skiddish! oh and it is a 1500 with the 4.7l.

Check your fluid. It does funny stuff when the level is low.

I have an 02 and when I'm moving slowly ... it makes a Squeaking noise. What's that about?
