Steering slop at firewall

[Mike7ftr]

It's like I'm missing a bearing or brushing. I tried to upload a video to show how much slop but couldnt figure out how. It's an easy 3/16" or so.

Think it's the "lower bearing". Ecklers has it for $45.00. Is there anything else I should address while I'm doing this fix.

Depends how far you want to go down the 'while I have it apart" hole. Can change to the Jeep shaft for a small improvement. Some columns had bushing in that area, while others had the bearing

I've already done it. Got rid of the rag joint.

Worth checking the steering column it self. Make sure top bearing is good and tilt attachment is tight

Doing a little research you can get that for cheaper.
