Are your tie-rod ends parallel with the rack? If not a bumpsteer kit should help.

Here's what I suggest to solve your problem:

1. Check the tie rod ends for excessive play. If they're worn, they'll need to be replaced.

2. The pulling to one side is probably due to worn steering rack bushings. I suggest you replace them with urethane units; standard bushings if the car is lowered up to 1-1/4", offset bushings if it's lowered more than 1-1/4".

3. Have the wheel alignment checked. Bumpsteer is increased if there's too much toe out.
