    have you checked your power steering level?
    the rack and pinion makes a squeeling noise when air gets into it

      Did you reconnect the radius rod after installing the transmission? It ties your control arm to your subframe to set caster. If it's not attached, it could cause steering issues.

        Yea you definitely forgot to do something. A transmission isn't going to cause bad steering. I would put the car back in the air and go over everything you touched and make sure its in the right place and tight.

          Either you didn't put something back properly, or you threw your alignment WAY off when you did the transmission.

              turn the steering wheel lock to lock 8-10 times. it bleeds the system that way.

                I would have to say your alignment is way off. Have a buddy hold a piece of string at the center of the back tire. You hold it on the other tire. If the string is straight then the front and rear should both match since you didn't mess with the back in anyway, any ways if its off by a bit adjust and keep checking.

                  Or you could just ask a shop to check your alignment...
