Does anyone know where i can get the uni joint or steering yoke or rag joint, im not really sure the official name of the part so i just said all 3. I searched all over the internet, and i could only find one old rusted one, and the dealership doesnt event sell it, would there happen to be a alternative for it?

Find someone parting out a car or try some self service junkyards. There are plenty of junk supras out there. Also the proper name for it is the steering intermediate shaft, according to what I understood from the toyota parts system anyway. Ever since they took all the pictures offline it's hard to look parts up properly.

Thank you destrux, well there isnt any self service junk yards over here, closest one is about 30mins away and there unlikely to have a mk3 supra just sitting there, and how would i know for sure its not the intermediate shaft, the wheel feels like it has alot of play 2inches going in either direction from the center , i replaced the steering rack and the inner tie rods and i jacked up the car i cant shake the wheels at all so , i dont think it be a tie rod issue. and my car doesnt make any clunk sounds or anything, it just squeaks when you turn the wheel back and forth and the car is off, and when youre driving its kinda scary, if you keep the wheel in the center and try to turn right per say the car will kinda start drifting to the right , and if you turn the wheel harder it just wont respond to youre steering imput until you have made it past the play point then it steers perfectly only thing the steering rack is off alignment .
