Re: steering problems

sounds like the outer tie rods are about to fall off. which means goodbye steering control.

if you know what's your problem don't ask... it's foolish.
if you don't post pics but it sounds serious, the best thing is to get a serious diagnostic from someone that is "supposed to know better" and then come back here to ask more question but with more details.
if you know how to do the job, unfortunately you sucks at describing them...
bye.
