I have a Chevy silverado 4x4 and I've recently noticed a noise with my powersteering pump. When I turn the wheel it makes a loud clicking noise.. Any ideas?? Thanks in advance!

The sound is coming from the actual pump. the noise inly occurs when I turn the wheel when its completly stopped or at low speeds..

What year?? Have dealt with similar issues, but most commonly was the riveted cross bar creaking! Others where the little stop on the control arm being dry( no grease)! Have someone rock ur steering wheel back and forth while u observe all joints under front end! If rivets are loose, drill out and install bolts with read loctite
