You can use the sector shaft adjuster screw to remove play from the steering, but like the other reply said.....you MUST eliminate any other items that are worn FIRST.....then if there is still play.....give the adjuster like 1/4 turnCW and see how that is.....????

that adjustment screw like streetgang said must only be turned and tightend in small amounts. test drive it an see if that helps. otherwise you can cause the steering box to bind and lock up on you which could be bad if your driving in town for instance.
