Default Squealing/Steering

While turning the steering wheel roughly 1/4 - 1/2 a turn going around corners I get a squealing. This occurs in both directions at speeds greater than 10kmph,
the steering also feel very mechanical and not as smooth as it should be,

I bought my Accord EX 4dr 5spd for $850 at 186000K now around 280000k hehe good engine
Put $1300 into clutch work, replaced both drive shafts to bypass messing around with replacing cv joints n such. have also replaced both front Coil Springs and Dampners due to shattered coils and crushed dampners.
After installing my new suspension in the front end I think I made a slight error in not ordering new dust covers and bump stops
I think also that I did not accurately line up the front right shock absorber with the coil as it seats slightly off in the Lower Dampner for ( Will be redoing this shock this weekend and if at all possible I will be adding bump stops and dust covers )
as I get a major vibration from that front right tire... Probably going to need a wheel allignment after all the front end work i'm doing right?

If anyone has any feedback for me that would be much helpful.

This is my first Honda, my second is a bike...

Sorry for the multiple questions
