check out the stearing box, and resivior. if its got a bunch of filing in it, the pump is crapping. power steering box might be bad

Definitely sounds like wheel bearings! I've been rolling on a bad balljoint for months and you won't really notice a grrowling or grinding sound.....I mean until the wheel falls off haha

Open power steering res. and see if it has any foam in it, if so try and bleed it, also check the tie rod boots for fluid, if there fluids in the boots time for a new rack

I think I finally found it. The driver's side brake line is rubbing on the raised writing on the sidewall of the tire when it's turned at full lock. It's put a pretty fair amount of wear on that line. I'm down to the wire braids in one spot. I'm going to go get a new line and try to route it so it stays away from the tire if I can. They are stock size tires, so I'm not sure why it's making contact like that.
