Talking UPDATE!!:Steering box sounds solved!!!

Well all, I have found that mysterious sound and I can sleep sound at night now. Well, it appeared that my track bar bolt was loose. I look under there when i got home from work and saw the captured nut/tab hanging straight down. I knew immediately that was the culpret. Slid under there, cranked it down with some breaker bar action and the sound was gone! That tab must have been slipping down ever so slightly since I did not notice it until now. I took the track bar off to install my spacers, but have not done the recheck of nuts yet. I think I will from now on and I know now where I will look first for more "sounds" then move on to other components. Thanks for the suggestions everyone, this is by far the best forum ever.

Here is the old post, it was a dry squeak, as if a bushing was going or something. It would happen when I turned my wheel and just about any suspension movement. Thought it might be the box going out, but I was gladly wrong.
