There is a bearing on the end of the worm gear shaft. The outer race of the bearing is clamped to the housing by the big plug with the hex on it. You can see the plug if you take the grill off. The inner race of the bearing is held to the worm gear shaft by a castle nut with a cotter pin. If you have end play in the worm shaft, it is either a shot bearing, or the bearing is not properly clamped in place on the inner and outer race. The bearing is easy to replace. You will have to take the steering shaft loose where the universal joint is attached to the worm shaft. It's held on with a "roll pin" and is keyed with a half moon (woodruff) key. Once you have the universal off, take the big plug (drain the oil out of the steering gear first) with the hex out of the front of the bolster and you can screw the worm gear and shaft with the bearing right out. Sometimes you need a washer bushing to get the plug to clamp the bearing in place correctly. While you have it off, might as well replace worm gear shaft seal.
