This problem has been discussed several times on this Forum. There are several places which could be worn and causing your problem. You have already addressed one But on a tractor with that much slop you will have to get into the steering box where you will find a vertical shaft with a worn keyway. and a sector gear in which the keyway probrobly isn't worn bad.Also in there are bushings and seals you have to replace. Plan on doing it all. The vertical shaft will have a square end on the bottom where the outside steering arm is clamped on. To bad, its worn out. Now if you plan on keeping the tractor forever, You replace the vertical shaft with one from a newer model, which has a tapered end on the bottom. $90 on Ebay. The sector gear will fit the shaft, but the steering arm won't so you will have to go to your IH dealer and get a new steering arm, not cheap. AND you have to get the one that fits you tierod ends. Replace these pieces and the shim Scotty mentions and all the seals and shims in there and it will be better than new. CHEAPSKATE SOLUTION You still have to take off the steering box. Replace the seals and sleeves,put in the shim washer, Fix the keyway, but you still have the problem of the steering arm clamp on the square shaft. Shim it with some real thin sheet metal and clamp it on tight.
