'95 Honda Civic DX steering problem

Hi everyone,

About 5 weeks ago, the steering became stiff when turning the steering wheel all the way to the right at slow speeds (approximately 5 - 10 mph): the steering wheel did not turn back the other way on its own after finishing the turn. It has been getting progressively worse: the steering is getting more stiff and happens well before the steering wheel is at the end of its range. And it's happening when I turn the steering wheel left now as well. I can now crank the steering wheel all the way to the left or the right and drive in an empty parking lot at 5 - 10 mph with my hands off the wheel, and the steering wheel will stay locked while the car drives in a circle. Is it a bad steering rack? Ball joints? Tie rod ends?

Steve
