Default precedent steering help

i have an 04 precedent and two weeks ago i hit a fallen tree at low speeds and it knocked my steering out of whack so i straitened it up by adjusting the tie rods, but in return it moved my steering wheel around a little instead of being strait, but it has been driving fine, well today i turned sharp from a stand still and gave it the gas and the front left tire just dragged and now my steering is out of whack again. can anyone give me an idea of what is wrong?

are you sure you didn,t bend anything under there? it dosn,t take much but might be hard to see.........i would take a real good look and compare sides to see if you can come up with anything..........................

i have checked real close, and nothing is bent. it seems like one side is sliding out some how,if that makes any sense. the shafts that come out of the steering box and have the tie rods on the end, that is what seems to be getting out of whack. anything?

only thing i can suggest is to start from scratch and get it all alined again and make sure the jam nuts are tight.......when your satisfied all is good take for a spin and put it thur the loops to see what happens...........i had one acting like that and it took me from 5pm till 3am before i got it right and it stayed that way..........................

lol ,so because you can't figure it out ,the setup(engineering) sucks .
oh boy.
club car has the best front end in the biz...
somethin is bent check the clevis ,the rack ends .
toe should be at 1/8"

the whole setup you are refering to is made so the less expensive parts are bent for people like yourself that can't handle the high power of a golf cart and drive it into a tree .
