I had some looseness in the front like this, and I eventually traced it to REAR alignment settings, and some unevenly worn tires. However I learned that the rear alignment can really push the front around.

A recent PCA DE tech inspection revealed some *very* slight play in my right front wheel which turned out to be a wheel bearing that was ever so slightly loose. I tightened it down just a bit (slightly more than the "move the washer with a screwdriver" method) and this eliminated most of the on-center play. I suspect that the little bit of play remaining is related to worn u-joints in the steering shaft - I will be replacing it with the Rennbay reproduction that I won at 944 Fest.
