excessive wheel play.. already replaced everything

.. well almost everything. So i am trying to solve a number of issues i have going, the most pressing is the wheel play (and vibrations + steering wheel shake) i get. I had recently (2months ago) replaced inner and outer tie rods, LBJ's and steering rack bushings. Today i jacked the front end up and tried shaking the wheel left to right.. got quite a bit of play. So i popped out the ITR's and OTR's and exchanged them and put in new ones.. still no change, and now i need an alignment :) What else could this be? there is no play at all when shaking the wheel up and down (grabbing at 12 and 6 on a clock). Could a bearing still cause this? I also get a weird clank occasionally from the front, typically when starting from a dead stop.. almost as tho a spring was hitting metal. Any ideas? Thanks!
