I would probably suspect two things:
1) Bottom ball joint - jack up front wheels grab hold of them at the bottom and check for in and out play.
2) Front strut mounts worked loose or worn - Remove the covers from the tops of your struts and check that the nut on the top of the shocks hasn't worked loose. If if has you need an allen key and deep ring spanner to adjust.


You got any pics of your dad's split ?
