Okay, i hit a curb a while back, broke a tension rod, yada yada. I replaced the rod today, drove it around and it pulled to the right. The left front is toed in a bit. But, when i turn left, about a half turn before full lock, the steering gets real light as if the front tires are off the ground (turns real easy, too easy). So my guess is the tie rod, although it looks fine. Any non smart *** answers would be greatly appreciated.

Either get it aligned or have someone who knows inspect it.
