everything looks ok on that side, cant say for sure about the steering arm as its on the other side of the hub... i say the steering rack arm is bent.

snow and ice isnt evil, its fun, you just need to have the right shoes :P

there you have a potentially unsafe car. the bolt at the end of the tie bar should be with the nut facing down. because if the nut comes loose, like this the bolt can fall down. not trying to sound patronising or anything.


on another note, i cannot see anything wrong that is causing the problem
