Reload this Page 1999 ford ranger supercab xlt - turning noise

Ford Ranger More than two decades ago, the Ford Ranger debuted as an answer to various compact pickup trucks being made available by Japanese automakers. The Ranger was cleanly styled and offered with a choice of a 6-foot or 7-foot bed. Ford boasted that the Ranger had more interior room than the best-selling imports and that 4-by-8-foot construction material could be carried in the bed.

Default 1999 ford ranger supercab xlt - turning noise
I have a 1999 ranger supercab xlt with the 4.0. Everytime it gets hot outside the truck starts making a noise when I turn the wheels, not a clicking noise but a noise like it is struggling. Is this the power steering going out or something else? It only does this when the temp gets over 80 degrees and the truck gets warm

Does anybody have any ideas?

Thanks in advance

My 2001 does this as well. I've read forums where others have complained about it. Irritating to say the least, but I've yet been able to figure out why.
