making a right turn

ok, when i make a right turn it feels like the wheels lock together and it feels like the power steering is kinda gone. i had it looked at by a few mechanics, and they said there's no physical damage (hell there shouldn't be, i just replaced the struts, springs and tires...). they did an auto tranny fluid flush, power steering flush, and suggested i change the power steering belt. since i felt this was a good opportunity to upgrade, i popped on a ur underdrive pulley. i had to do this because i thought my oil seal down there was leaking oil, and as i look at the part they took out now it had a huge crack in the oil seal. everything went on good, drives great i did note a power boost from the pulley, but it still doesn't wanna make a good right turn. it feels like the steering wheel almost locks up.

anyone know a cure for this sickness to cure muh purty babi?

something wrong with the steering column probably? any wires being wrapped anywhere that would cause it to tighten up? like a bicycle gooseneck being entangled with brake lines? just a suggestion.
