Default My steering is f--ed up!

guys
I have a Silverado NBS on 38" pjs, and at rest when i move the wheel back and forth it makes a terrible creaking/clunking noise. Pulled off the skid plate and found out this mechanism shaped like a red bull can in a bracket to the left of the steering assembly was responsible. Greased it up and still getting the noise. . .anyone know what this problem is and whats involved fixing it? Looks like I can just pop off the old part and put on the new part. Thank you for any help you can provide
