Default Re: 05' Precedent with Jerky Steering Problem

Ok, I went out and looked at it again. I can't find anything else that could be loose, and the socket is completely worn out, actually, its gone. All it took was a bump with a rubber mallet and the socket comes completely off the ball. I can tap it down and it stays again but I know thats not good. Its not able to be pulled off by hand though. I hit the passenger side socket equally as hard and it dosn't even flinch, its solid as a rock.

So i've determind that needs replaced, and I have a new tie rod end on its way. Could this be the cause of the darting though? When it 'darts' the ball and socket are still attached, although there is some play in it. It actually just happened to me at no more than 7 mph.
