Front wheels could be out of alinement, it is the castor angle that returns the wheel to the center.
Yes it could still be out. Check for unusual wear on the tires.l
no wear at all on tires suspension shop said might be my ball joints seized but rides really nice also my power steering pump started whinning after i swapped fluid i wonder if its my pump thats goin or something put on to tight (ie.tie rod ends or balljoints)
If the pump is making noises maybe you should check the hydraulic pressure or change the pump.
I expect the ball joints ar none greaseable but you could perhaps lubricate them with an oil can.
thx for ur advice gonna check out the alingment tommorow and probly swap water pump and ps pump this weekenk from my parts car ... appreciate everything let u know how it gows
OK, thanks for that. Hope everything comes right for you.
just go back from the alinement shop everything is good ie balljoints, tierod ends ,and the stiffness is comin from the rack .the caster was bang on as was rest of alinement so im going to attempt to swap the rack from my parts car this weekend seems pretty easy two bolts and the tie rods then back to the alinement shop lol thx again i appreciate the help!!!!!
Sounds like you may have found the problem. There is no easy way to lubricate racks but they do not give many troubles.

It is going to be your power steering motor. I had the same problem, no return to to center, hard to turn, started making a grinding noise on right turns. I did all kinds of different things to try and make it work. Some things (calipers), alighment made it better, but it will be your motor to cure it. Good luck.
