Uh oh.

There is what I guess you would call a tension screw on top of the steering box... To tighten up play, you loosen the jam nut... and turn that screw inward by NO MORE than 1/8th of a turn at a time.

That should take out the play....

However, if you overtighten it, you will destroy the box.

Sorry to give you that news...
