Default Still have a steering issue

HUB replaced. Tires rotated. alignment done.

still alot of play in my steering wheel. can i get a new gear for the steering gear box or do I want to replace the whole thing. also. when I stomp on the brakes my car still pulls to the left. I was thinking this could be a brake rotor problem. the passenger side hub spins free and easy but the drievr side hub feels like it has a little bit of brake pressure on it.

there is so much play in my steering that the car will pull left a lot and to the right alot based on the road itself. no dominant direction really but its still a bit of a hard pull. The other day I was in a sweeper curve going about 70 and slowed down a bit for merging traffic and them something shifted and the car started pulling me into the turn just because I braked. I didnt even move the steering wheel.


ideas?

Check your steering shaft for play. I had similar issues and my steering shaft had massive play in the joint. I think the Termi's use a solid shaft. I replaced mine with a stock '96 shaft and it made a big difference. This may be in reference to an older post of your's, but I hope it helps...
