How long have you had the car, and do you know it's history. I could be wrong but it sounds like something I came across some years ago when a car had had a front OS shunt and then been repaired and the body geometry was off.

Could be pattern arms, I know from experience they are not always an accurate copy of the original. I fitted one to mine and it threw the steering wheel out by quarter of a turn !
