I replaced my steering rack bushings, but there is still some marginal play in the wheel. I have new Toyota tie rods I'll be installing to see if it helps any.

Yes you can attain the same result by replacing the slip joint, but this way saves lots of dollars.
My question is, can a pre 98 steering shaft be used on a 99+? those did not have the slip joint correct? I have not been able to find anyone local that will allow me to do this, not even farmer friends that weld and jerry rid their equipment.
I don't see much difference between this fix and using a non collapsing shaft, except this "may" still collapse in the event of accident
can seek out a 98ish steering shaft from junkyard and swap it in?
