Have you had the tie-rods and ball joints checked?---they are not very hard to replace--did the whole thing all four ball joints and both tie rods in about four hours.

Also check the check the break callipers you may have one draging silightly--one strut worn a bit more than the other will do it as well though both have to be replaced at the same time.

Good luck.

Bavarian auto sports has a nifty little tool for seprating tie rod ends that beats the old pickle fork and hammer all to heck wouldn't be without mine.
