Assuming that the PS fluid is not leaking and the pump is functioning correctly, then I would think tie rods/drop links/anti-rollbar bushes.
Why did you only replace the outer tie rods? If they were worn, theres a good chance the inner rod bearings are worn too. They bolt strait into the steering rack and if the inner ball joint(s) are loose, then you can feel the knock in the steering.
