Jeff,
There are a few small screws that hold the horn ring to the steering wheel.
These little guys loosen up and rub while turning the wheel.
They will destroy the horn ring if not tightened up.
Pull steering wheel to check and tighten.
Worth a look.

OK, I've recently noticed an audible (and can almost feel) a low sounding
"click" when turning the wheel back to center from left. The van had power
steering but the pump pucked so I've been driving it with the belt
disconnected.

What could be the possible causes. Seems to be it's a tell tale sign
something is wearing out. Your thoughts are greatly appreciated.
