could be your bushing

it's probably your alignment which is being affected by bushings and other things

another thing is that my front ball joints were bad they would pop or crack wen i would go up a drive way ramp, also the car felt just a bit slightly hot like warm under my feet????

Ok what do you mean by front ball joints? The tie rods? And about the heat, well is your cat covered?

if it was the alingment would it cause the steering wheel to stay left while going strait?
