Excessive play in steering wheel

Ok will do...I think I can do this on my own. I got a neighbor who made the mistake of saying "just holler if you need any help" and he seems pretty knowledgeable. I'll provide the labor if he provides the insight. There are still some shops around that I will have to check into. I wonder if I could sneak some parts into work via a backpack and use our small press....should be able too..they pretty easy going on govt work. What do u think about a front end rebuild kit. They seem to have most of what all I might need
