Herb,

I have checked the steering column U-joints, and unfortunately, they are as good as new, I checked them to 50 foot pounds, ie. zero slop. I can actually see the input shaft moving where it enters into the rack and see the output shafts not moving for quite some time.

To me, this is sounding like its time for a new rack, but if there is an adjustment that can be made to it, I'd rather try that first!
