Could possibly be a worn part in the rack in pinion assembly if you're hearing noises coming from the steering wheel.My 90 integra had noises coming from around the steering wheel and that was the cause.

Did you have to replace the entire Rack and Pinion assembly? What did you do?

Squeaks might be from a belt. Are the Vigor's power steering pump driven by a belt?

Yep, belt driven. I'm assuming the owner would have installed new belts when the motor was out and easy to get to.
