Right, this could be a long shot - descriptive skills will have to be at there best...

Drving along minding my own business, as i let off the accel i get a painful sounding knock and the steering veers to the left, almost feels like there is play somewhere...

Ball joints are of good condition and track-rod ends are of new condition, what other than above could be causing this as it is really starting to boil my piss
