At my bud's shop, I felt the steering with the wheels OFF both front sides(the car was in the air, on his lift) and the turning was smooth.....When there is stress on the rods with the wheels on and car on ground, I would get the binding. I'll report back about my results.

Steve,

Be sure to let us know what you find. In my situation, I found that everything cleared up when I got the lithium grease into the double joint. My tie rods are apparently still serviceable since I'm no longer having any issues.
There must be multiple levels of noises, clicks and clunks associated with our truck!
