Steering PRoblem

Hi I have an 82 Corolla RWD, I am hearing a clicking sound in front whenever I pass through a not so smooth road, the steering goes away from the humps or bumps automatically and I fought to get it to a straight direction. Sometimes it is heavy on the left side and sometimes its feels normal. MOst of the time at 80km per hour I can feel a slight vibration on the steering wheel (with clicking sound). SOS please.

Wheel Alignment
Tire Rotation and balance

Just a couple of things that could solve your problem... Also if your tires are old, they could be out of shape.

I think you just need to lubricate the u joint w/c is between the firewall and the steering rack.

Ok Pronlem is solved, The problem occured when I ask a shop to fix my rack and pinion (bushing) , after that, I can hear ckicking sounds just under by steering wheel. What I have found out that the u-joint was not aligned properly and the retaining screws does not even have any lock washers on it. STUPID Mechanics!
