[s-cars] I think my steering is shot... Help!

[CLAG500 at aol.com]

I would try adjusting the steering rack pre-load.

When I did mine I just turned the adjuster until I couldn't feel any play  
while moving the wheel back and fourth with the car parked.

So lately since there is no snow, I  put my 18" rims back on. I have 
noticed that the car has a tendency to go  with the ruts, but only 
sometimes. When I come to a stop at a light the  steering wheel will move 
itself slightly to the left (I'm sure following a  rut).

Anyone have any ideas, other than the damper? (I hear clunking  when the 
car is stopped and move the wheel left to right. All suspension  
components are  TIGHT.)
