The steering stop bolts have a nylon cap that sits on there head. They've worn out. I used to put a bit of grease on them, and got into the habit of not holding steering hard on full lock, because I was to cheap and lazy to get new ones :lol:

Rub some grease on both the steering stops. Its keeps them quiet for a while
