    There's alot of play in the steering.
    I have to turn the steering wheel about 6 inches either way before the
    wheels turn.
    It just started about 3 weeks ago.
    Does anyone know what the problem is?

    Thanks!

  2. Steering's messed up?

    Seriously - there's not much in there to break. It's a rack and tie rod
    ends and ball joints and the collum. Something's lose. Easy way to do
    this would be key on, engine off, and wiggle the wheel while watching
    the components. I'm betting it's between the steering wheel and the
    rack, or the rack tself...
