Default Tightening my Power Steering

I am having problems with my power steering. My steering is very loose especially on the freeway. How do I tighten up my power steering so that i can get a quicker reaction time while driving on the freeway? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

sounds like you need to check for loose things under it.. easyest way is have someone wiggle the wheel and watch for loose things... stearing box.. track arm tie rods..all kind of things ...
