If there are hard spots, I think it's more likely to be the steering knuckle. Lube it up with the oil can, spin the wheel back and forth, and report back.
Worked wonders on mine.

I just dumped oil on the visible rotating assembly. I thought I had a problem with the rack, as it sounds like you think you have, and oiling that assembly was suggested to me, and it worked, and it's still happy. It's been 3 months since I oiled it. I quite literally dumped half a quart of mobil 1 on it. A bit wasteful, but it rust proofs whatever else it lands on, so I'm ok with that.
Both ends of #11, whatever they're called:
