Steering Squeaking

Hello all,

I have a question. The steering on my truck is squeeking. Its mostly at low speeds and at a stand still.

Is there some way I can lube it up? If so, what type of lube and where do I put it.

As you can tell I am a pro....hahaha....

Thanks for your help.

You got the ole Pitman Arm squeel. You have two choices:
1. Replace pitman arm. About $55.00 for tool and part. (15 minute job)
2. Buy a needle fitting for your grease gun and inject grease into the boot.

Thanks for your help Yankee7985.

I will just go out and get a new one and soon.

Its kind of embarissing when you pull up some where and it sound like your driving and old rust bucket.
