Welcome to DT!

I just looked in JDParts, there is a lot that could be wrong in that system. Hopefully user JD110 can help...he is a JD mechanic.

Sorry I missed your post earlier. Usually the reason for wandering steering on these models is worn o-rings in the steering motor. The o-rings are # 20 - 24 in diagram. It is a pretty involved repair. front end needs to be jacked up and one of the engine side frames needs to be removed for access to the cylinder bores. Recommend replacing all orings and seals while you are there.
