Years ago mine felt that way. The fix for mine was a set of poly rack bushings.
Here is one set 4Runner Steering Rack Bushing Kit - Wheeler's Off-Road, Inc
It could also be upper or lower ball joints, or steering tierod ends (inner or outer), or the rack guide http://www.toyota-4runner.org/3rd-gen-t4rs/70884-how-replace-steering-rack-guide-pictures.html

you know what now that you say tie rod ends, about a week ago i noticed a slight squeaking sound from my pass side when turning the wheel almost at a stop.

I did these and it was a huge help, my old tired steering rack needed new busings(you could shake the entire thing by hand) but after that it was still squishy and i ended up needing both outer and inner tie rods...so i bought a rebuilt rack from Oriellys, seems like it was around $200 but has a lifetime warranty. And it says "Toyoda" on it like my factory one, so looks like they are rebuilding the factory cores.
