Default steering too easy, too loose

hi guys,

anyone experienced a problem with having steering too loose, too easy? Like every bump in the road will throw the steering wheel easily into the sides, and I think there is very low resistance in the steering overall... there is full fluid level in the power steering reservoir, no errors on dashboard. I feel there is too much play in steering. After removing the tires/wheels and manually pushing on the steering front assembly there is not a visible play though, just slight clicking maybe.

I'm having this issue since I took quite a few off-road high speed rides with my 2007 H3 (21k miles only) last fall on local dirt roads. Firstly I screwed up my geometry, which after several shop visits got more or less fixed (however after last laser alignment we had to manually adjust one of the tie rods because truck still pulled into a side)... I don't have anything bent or visibly damaged. I have 33" BFG Mud Terrains on the vehicle, nearly new set.

BTW, I brought up this issue here many month back, didn't fix it yet. As a result I hardly drive my beloved H3 these days, just weekly short trips in order not having the truck standing completely and deteriorating slowly by sitting on the yard.

I'm almost thinking whether by driving other vehicles with much tighter steering I just didn't forget how H3 steers...

Thx for ideas!
