Hey all,
I need some help with a steering problem I'm having. It is much harder to turn left than it is to turn right. Also, when I'm turning left there is a squeaking noise that lines up with how fast I turn. The faster I turn, the faster the squeak is.

How about some history. Have you done any work to the steering lately "

I'll take "frozen front u-joint" for $50, Alex.

I gotta go with more info needed.

I assume you made sure your right, front tire pressure isn't low?

KD4315

Tire pressure is fine, I just checked them all yesterday hen filling up.

As far as history: I recently changed the power steering pump because I thought that was the culprit. The Jeep has sat pretty much idle for about 2 years. I've only put about 250 miles on it in that time frame.

Thanks . I'll check out the u-joint. Any recommendations on brand or should I just get a stock replacement on rockauto?

Radi

Pretty much any of them rock auto sells are fine. I used the AC Delco's and had no issues.

Jack up the front of your jeep, turn the tires all the way to the left and spin your tire. If there's any binding then your joint is bad. Vice versa on the right side
