Getting a clicking noise when I turn. More so to one side than the other. Occasionally I get a louder sound when I turn at full lock. Cant figure out if its the rack or the axle shaft. Original 2021 with old steering rack, has bushings and upgrade tie rods.

Internet says axle, bronco history tells me steering rack.

Any thoughts?

Sounds like classic bad axle CV clicking IMO.

Would concur to check CV’s both sides, but my experience is you typically don’t get distinct clicking unless the front axle is engaged (unless you have torn boots and exposed/contaminated joints).
If not, I’m thinking steering. Mite also be worth making sure your front axle is disengaging after using 4WD.
