Do you have play in the steering wheel? How bad are your front shocks?
Many times it is not one particular part that is bad. Over time all the front end parts wear a little. Combine that little wear on all the parts can cause your problem. Did you try greasing the front end? That might help a little.

It took about 1-1/4 turns to eliminate the slop in my '94.

Make sure the radial arm is tight before you go buyin anything. It gets over looked the most.
