seems unsafe to me. Linkage seems Ok. Can worm steering gears allow this to happen. Unsafe to drive??
SAFETY FIRST
It sounds to me like your steering box may be out of adjustment. My steering would "bind" when the steering was at full lock, right or left. I followed ALL the steps in "The Red Book" for adjustment (I have a two tooth) and I have not had a problem since. It even suggests in the book to check your steering for binding after adjustment.
