COOL! I thought I was the only one that drove my rover in the nude

They'll only have the greatest positive effect on steering if they are the problem.

OP, don't just start throwing parts at a problem. Diagnose it to find the source of the problem, then repair as needed.

I totally agree. Just throwing guesses followed by changing new parts rarely solves the problem often just further disguises the root cause. You need to start with a logical plan and sequence otherwise you'll end up wasting cash and may never sort out what is really wrong and become more despondent and confused. Analyse others similar problems from other posts and then relate those to your symptoms and develop any similarities and then check the existing parts in a logical sequence, hopefully the obvious will unfold.

Unknown sources of vibrations are the classic in point - one can end up chasing ones tail!!
