Suspension shifting...

So I am having issues with the lower a-arms shifting in the subframe under a hard turn. The bolts are REALLY freaking tight and after a hard right turn at about 60mph on the track the steering wheel stays cocked to the right. A hard left will fix it for the most part but the alignment shop is getting tired of fixing it considering I got a lifetime alignment package with them. I have checked every bolt after they are done to make sure they are tight. Only thing I can think of is that the subframe is not the stock one and the blockers for the cam on the bolt are wider than stock and not touching on both sides at all times. Any other ideas? I will be busting out the paint pen tomorrow to see exactly what is shifting.

Thats what I'm thinking but it really doesn't look like it is. However I have a new problem......My power steering died. Don't know if it's the rack or pump but i'm guessing pump as turning the wheel puts no extra load on the engine and there are really fine metal specs in the fluid. This was during an Auto X session.
