Cracking sound when steering right

Hi, my vehicle makes a loud clicking/cracking noise only when turning right, the car steers correctly but the steering wheel when steering to the right does not perform as smoothly as steering to the left and it makes the noises described.

It has the basic manual steering box with no hydraulic assist whatsoever, it seems that the noise comes from the steering box, steering column, steering wheel area, when I ask a friend to turn the wheel I cant seem to find anything strange from the steering system seen from the outside. Steering box problem?
