Default Need Help guys, got a problem with my steering!!!!

all right, can anyone tell me whats wrong, i have a 94 civic hatch back and when ever i drive-the wheel jerks to the right and to the left, on its own, like i have to keep the steering wheel straight with two hands just so the car doesnt turn left or right, when ever i make turns it struggles to turn and makes clicking noise as well, if anyone can tell me what it is, any help would be appreciated...

Check the alignment angles. if car still has same problem and alignment is good put it on rack with its full wieght on the wheels and have someone turn the steering wheel back and forth while you check for worn or loose parts. Check cv joints for the clicking noises.

if your car is lowered and it jerks whenever you go over a bump, then the unexplained jerking is being caused by bump steer. take your car to an alignment shop and tell them to check if your toe is within spec.
