1998 civic steering twitch???

Okay. So i was driving around town all fine and all of a sudden when i was exiting the highway (previously going 75mph) my steering wheel started to twitch. Like violently to the right and straight again. Violently twitching. Like a click but a twitch. No sound ..and only when i slow down and/or put in my clutch.
recently in the past 10,000 miles i have replaced (well my boyfriend replaced) cheap $40 inner and outer tie rods and AutoValue house brand right wheel bearing.
I have not done alignment sense tie rods sense it didn't seem to be to different. (Hasn't worn tires at all)
I need to figure out what's wrong because i have no idea. Rack and pinion? Bad tie rods already? Something loose??? I need help!!

Sounds like something came loose or broke. Pull both wheels and inspect.

Also it does not take much to be out of alignment and that can cause some weird things to happen.
