OK, I'm only an ordinary Hot Rod Stanger. My recommendation is after making sure all steering gear linkage is good and tight is to check the box. If that's where the play is then there are three options. Adjust, repair, or replace. The preload adjustment is a stud with a lock nut. My advice is to loosen the lock nut 1/2 turn. Tighten (clockwise) the stud to increase preload 1/4 turn at a time. Locking the lock nut each time. See what that action does. This is how I adjusted mine. Don't over do it.
