When I'm at a drive - through and moving very slowly around curves there is loud metal clanging noise whenever I turn the steering wheel. However it does not seem to be affecting my steering as for as any difficulty. Do I possibly need a new power steering pump?
Thanks

It sounds like it could be the sway bar links, can you get under the truck with a flashlight and see if they are in could shape with the rubber insulators in there place
