There is play in some component. With the engine off, look at the steering shaft between the PS unit, and the front gear box. Turn the steering wheel back and forth and look for any rotation before the wheels move. Even a few degrees will make a problem. Look at the bearing where the center pivot is located. The steering shaft lower bearing must be tight. The tierod engs can have no play. (you will need a helper to assess the smallest looseness. The spindles and uprights are also suspect. With one wheel jacked up, be rough with the wheel/tire and watch the bottom ov the upright, where the spindle turns outward for looseness. And finally, check toe in. While the tire is off the ground, use a nail in a board to scribe a single line on the rib or the tire. do the same on the other tire. Drive forward against a 2X4 so there is just small pressure on both tires at the same time. now measure between the score marks on the very front of the tire (1/2 way up) and the back of the tire, (half way up) the front should read 1/8 to 3/16 smaller than the back.
