sounds like vacuum leak but not sure
Maybe I need to go visit a shrink but when I turn my steering wheel I swear I can hear what sound like to a small vacuum leak!
I have no low vacuum symptoms on the Jeep, but just the same, the thing is new to me and I have to do a complete once over before I declare it reliable.
What could possibly need vacuum in the steering column?
I'll post another question in a different thread if people don't mind.

"Guess that noise" is a new game you will come to love. Every Cherokee I ever had does this, its probably just the sound of the power steering. How's the fluid level?

I just replaced the fluid and the level is perfect. I think you are right about it being the power steering. I'll postpone the visit to the shrink.
