Default Major Alignment Problem 91 CAMRY

Ok this is my sisters daily driver

So I tried to get alignment on the car

It has play at the steering wheel.....Centered it goes left and right about 1\4 of turn
so I cannnot measure the caster!!!

How do I fix this ???

Second problem

I cannot adjust toe....When I adjust one side the other side goes bad...I'm thinking worn components!
What should I replace besides the Tie Rod Ends or what should I inspect?

When I go on the freeway at 60mph the car will start pulling to the sides nasty
and the steering wheel wont center after alignment!!

Please everyone help me out!! My sister needs this car for work this tuesday!!
Need help !! Thanks for looking!!any advise comments are welcome

Default RE: Major Alignment Problem 91 CAMRY

There is another swivel tie rod end at the opposite end of the tie rod at the knuckle, (hidden by the boot), check this for play.

Suppension parts that can go bad: lower control arm bushings causing the arm to shift, ball joints, upper strut mount bushing. Check for up and down play in the rack and play between the rack and pinion. There can be play in the U-joints (2) of the shaft that connects the steering column to the input shaft of the steering housing.
