Replaced steering gearbox because I had already adjusted gear box several times. Before for having play issues. Now I have like major play issues the steering wheel is off and it wonders now. I don't know where to even begin to fix this.

Good evening,

Can you attach some pictures of where the play is located in the steering column?

The play is in the steering wheel, like 1/4 to half a turn of the steering wheel.
