No, the ball joints are fine. The problem is definitely inside the steering gear.

Its possible that you sheered some teeth but logic would dictate that you would have a dead spot in your steering if that is what happened. If you bent the teeth but didn't shear them then you would feel a binding.
If you bent the teeth in the steering box depending on how bad then its possible to take a file and remove the bowing in the teeth.

The steering doesn't bind in spots; it's consistently stiff across several turns of the steering wheel. How can I open up the steering gear to inspect it?
