Steering problems
I am having problems with my steering on my 78 f-100. There is a lot of play in my steering column. I rebuilt the front end new ball joints, I had the front end aligned. Brand new power steering box, I'm running out of options. can anyone help??

The best way to find a loose joint, is to have a friend move the steering wheel back and forth while you check each joint for wear or play. Like Torque said, start with the rag joint (where the column is connected to the steering box), then work your way to each wheel. Also check the track bar bushings - diagonal bar with one end on the axle and other on frame.
Let us know what you find.
