    OK. The first place to examine are all 6 of the tie rod ends. Then
    check for play in the steering box (this can usually be adjusted out)
     Next comes the steering relay. Check all the spring bushings for wear
    including the ones in the frame. Look for loose U bolts. Finally check
    the wheel bearing for correct adjustment.
    When all this is in good condition your Land Rover will handle pretty
    well and be mush more relaxing to drive.
