Squeak when turning left only

My 88 SC squeaks a little every time i turn left, not at all when i turn right. It's a loud noise, and it's louder and more apt to do it the tighter i turn. I'm sure it has something to do with the steering, but what? Does something need to be lubricated?

It could be the coil spring isolator, or really any of the pivot points for the front suspension. When's the last time you lubed your front end? If it's been a while, give it a shot and see how it does.

Check your power steering belt it might need replacing, also check your power steering fluid.
