Default steering problems

94 civic coupe dx....no power steering

everyday its been getting harder and harder to steer to the left and right. i just got brand new tires, and they're filled with air. my allignment is bad, and one of the axle boots closer to the wheel is ripped. im about to get that fixed and im hoping thats the problem.

is that whats wrong, or could it be something else?
TIA

what would i need and how much would it cost for power steering?
im planning on giving the car to my sister in a couple months (future hondatech guru).

when driving straight, does the wheel pulls either left or right randomly? if so your rack is going bad again.

I just done a swap on my 94 EX coupe. So I went ahead and swapped the power steering out w/manual and it was hard to turn till I got it alligned. Allignment is going to be my guess.
