when I'm driving down the road my Mustang tends to pull jerk side to side as if the room was really loose. when I took off the rim it seems that the roster is violently loose, with 1 to 2 inches of play. is this normal or am I missing a washer or spacer somewhere?

What are you referring to by "roster"? Ford has way more trouble with steering and suspension parts breaking leading to loss of control and crashes than all other manufacturers combined. Noises, clunks, and pulling must never be ignored. Have the car inspected at a tire and alignment shop.
