1985 Mercury Marquis

i got into wreck and busted a tire. I drove on tired till I got to my house. By the time I got there it was hard for me to turn and it seemed like my steering wheel or tires locked. When I fixed my tire, I tried to leave but the steering wheel was real loose and turned all the way around then it got hard. Then I realized that my tires didn't turn at first until it got hard and I was turning wheel like I didn't have any power steering. I tried to drive it but my tires wouldn't turn and my steering wheel was not coordinating with the turning I was doing. What could be wrong?

Something might be broken in the steering linkage
check the pitman arm,it is connected to the gear box.check the power steering fluid.
check idler arm and bracket assembly.
