Default new owner of a 99' blazer 4x4 2dr 5sp manual

First bow tie, and so far so good.

photo's to come.

its got 155,xxx miles, runs very strong. no issues other that a grinding/stress noise coming from the passenger side whenever making a left hand turn. cant feel anything in the stearing wheel, all the boots on the stearing componets are good other than the tie rod.... got a friend who's worked on cars all his life and seems to know his stuff. says to replace tie rod, im short on money so just ooking for some suggestions on what this could be and around how much to fix if you think you know the problem. all suggestions are appreciated.

it came with 31x10.5x15 tires on the stock rims. tires do not rub at all. i beleive everything is stock but after reading through these forums it sounds like a small lift is required for no rub. i'll post photo's tomorrow once the sun comes up. just curious to know if its been lifted at all, even if its just the torsion bars being cranked.
