Really thankful that no one was hurt and there was no damage, but I am pretty certain the steering play contributed to this and not being able to finely control the vehicle as I would've liked.

Thanks alot for the video, mbttim!
Dang, glad to hear you're ok. Part of the push for me to start sorting my problems out was driving in the rain over the summer, hit a few puddles and it felt like the car wanted to throw me off the road. It is not a pleasant feeling driving a car like that, especially with winter snows coming in my neck of the woods.

Thanks for the input on the steering shaft - did you end up having to have your shaft tac welded?
