J Risher: Inside your steering box there is a worm on the shaft coming from steering wheel. The other shaft going down through bottom of box with steering control arm attached has half cog inside driven by the worm on other shaft, That half cog is keyed to shaft with woodruff key. You can get lot of looseness right in that key. That one is the cheap and easy fix. You just have to remove front axle and drop bottom from steering box. I have run across a few of these with key way damage. I use a larger key and grind it to make a tight fit. I did fix one by welding key in shaft and grinding, but leaving it tight enough cog had to be put on with a press. It is really your call when you see how bad the key and keyways are. Another item that can cause looseness is a worn worm and cog. You can expect to pay dearly for them. I was quoted over $400. about 10 years ago. I decided that tractor could become my off road tractor.
