Does it sound like it is coming from the inside steering column or from the underhood pump or rack and pinion setup?

Inner tie rods go out quick on those trucks especially with bigger, heavier wheels. Check your bushings also, you could have some metal on metal. Are your tires wearing evenly?

You need a new intermediate steering shaft. I've had mine regreased once, fixed it for awhile but it is banging again. Gonna replace it this time.Originally Posted by x05chevy4x4x

You might check on it, GM will warranty the intermediate shaft. They did my old truck and another friends truck under warranty.
