slop in the steering
 

I've noticed some slop in my steering lately. is the steering gear usally the problem area. It sounds like there is a mild clunk noise from the gearbox when i turn the steering wheel back and forth.
Does the entire steering box need to be replaced if this is the problem.
Thanks

sounds like the rack and pinion is shot..make sure theres no slop in the steering shaft or tie rods...the rack is only like 100 for a reman
