Anyway to tighten the front end up on this 245.

The steering it’s really easy there’s no wobble in the front axle bearings or wheel bearings but you have to turn the steering wheel about a quarter of a turn before the mower actually reacts and I believe the problem is in the lateral movement of the axle as you turn the wheel as shown in this https://streamable.com/26y5nz

You got the right mower this is the diagram https://partscatalog.deere.com/jdrc/sidebyside/equipment/76969/referrer/navigation/pgId/109751514. there are two bolts that go into the front axle housing. I believe theya re hooked to a cam because the tighten and loosen as you turn them but never change in total tension. I'll look at the diagrams a bit and the service manual.
