Definitely check your alignment. But, it also could be the pinion gear and/or the rack in addition to the tie rods. I replaced the pinion in my Marathon which helped some, but I still need to replace the rack, which I understand is the most common source of loose steering.

Check this thread, http://www.buggiesgonewild.com/elect...+steering+rack
