Thrust arms and / or tie rod ends. Replace 'em, you'll be sorted.

Well, define "big job" :D No, not really. If you're at all mechanically minded and are up to a bit of DIY, with the right stuff you can do it. Else take it to a shop. Not much bigger job than say, replacing shocks? Comments anybody. I did mine, with no problems. Invest in a big hammer ;)

Parts in S.Africa are very much different than in Europe and N.America. Using the current exchange rate, you'd be looking at around US$ 550 (that's S.Africa price). I have no clue what you'd pay elsewhere :(
