    Sway

    Don't set that steering box too tight!!
    Most of them require a little clearance when at centre, the clearances decrease as the wheel is turned.
    Check the suspension bushings.
    Replace 'em yourself. The part is cheap.

    Yes, if you over adjust your steering box it will stay turned after you make a turn. thanks for bringing that up. I figured out that one the hard way too. Ran up a few curbs

    I like to jack it right behind the wheel, so the weight is still compressing the suspension. Then I look all over for something loose.
