Default steering wheel/steering

Hello

suddanly my 69 fb has 180` free play on the steering wheel.

Meaning I can turn the steering wheel 180`before any resistance.
I drove it up and down the street and its like driving a boat while drunk,stoned and sufferinga head injury, it just floats for 180`before turning the wheels.

Any quick ideas, befoer I lug out all the crap in my garage and set it up on some stands, I dont dare drive it anywhere atm, Im afraid my wheels might suddanly decide to face the oposit directions.

BTW the steering has allways been frikken hard, but its 225 tires up front and a manual steering with a 390ci engine weighing it down.
