At this point, the original poster needs to dive in hands on and see what's going on. Suggestion box is full.

Take a lot of pictures to show the connection points, overall shot, etc, if O.P. doesn't see something wrong himself.

Recommendations can only go so far without being there.

Uh-huh, 2011 is more than 7 years ago isn't it? The new stuff is made overseas, you have old stock parts there.

The symptoms are exactly what you get if you have more than about 5 degress toe out... all applied on 1 side. massive imbalance in track rod lengths.
1 wheel tries to go straight and the other tries to go where its pointed which aint...straight... it tucks under or makes a play to visit your neighbours drive.

1 track rod is half a mile too long....or the other is similarly too short....best to keep it simple until its baselined with a backyard/shady tree set-up, only then can anyone see if anything is truely bent or broken...

been there, done this, fixed this.

Since the subject of Moog parts has been brought up, this is a good time to discuss the company history. Moog has been bought and sold numerous times since it was a family owned business approximately 40 years ago. Moog is currently owned by Tenneco Corporation. They now have plants all over the globe including China. There are still some manufacturing plants in the USA. While some of their ball joints are made in Asia and Europe, quite a few are still made at the Moog factory in Boaz Alabama. The Boaz plant has been in operation since the 1970's. There is also a manufacturing facility in the St. Louis area.

Problem has been rectified, come to find out that the toe was totally off on the right side, thanks to all for the help and ideas. Now time to drive and enjoy for the rest of the summer!
