Amazing what a small play in the lower bj can do to steering feel.
Replaced both sides and the vehicle doesn't wander anymore !
It took me a long time to try doing this because I never made the bj play/wobble when I 'test' them whenever I have the front wheels jacked-up (compared to 'play' I induced to our Volvo V70 when it needed bj/lower control arm).
Worth trying if after replacing some steering parts, you still have that loose steering feel on your 1st Gen Expedition.
