Its may be the strut mounts/bearings (disregard if that is what you meant by bearings). Have you tried spraying the u-joint in the intermediate shaft with some lubricate or replacing it to see if that is the issue?

If your leaking fluid then you need to check your steering lines for leaks. Also you may need a new pump. You need to bleed all the air out of the system. Leave the cap off and steer the wheels from stop to stop a bunch and let it run about 2 minutes between steering.
