U may also want to consider lifting the front wheels up and physically turn the wheels AT the wheels by hand and see if things bind up. Engine off mind u.
Obviously this is speculation but through process of eleimination ur issue probably isn't the column or the pump because both of those do the same job no matter what way u turn. If none of the linkage is binding then that leaves the rack. Possibly leaking by the piston. However this is just speculatoon and with out seeing and looking myself I can only speculate and nothing more.

ok yeah when it tightens up yeah i hear some groaning sound but its very faint.. if u have music playing you can barely hear it..
when the car is in the air i put it in neutral or leave in park with car off?
