when the wheel is "locked" to right or left (doesn't matter) or close to "locked" and you begin moving forward in any gear it makes a god awful grinding kind of noise. loudly. sounds almost like a big clutch that lost its springs but as soon as you straighten out it quits and everything is fine. this is low speed parking lot maneuvering, going around slight curves and stuff does not create this noise.
it is a winch truck with an air engage front end. grinding noise happens with front axle disengaged, have not tried with it engaged. truck has regular 9.20 tires and does not have any form of assisted steering.
I don't think this a "normal" noise for these trucks, could anyone give me any ideas what I should start looking at?
