1952 Farmall Super A [it's Wide Front End] I have about one-quarter turn play in the steering wheel, chasing the front wheels.

I see there are 2 pre-sized bushings - one for the worm shaft and the other for the [vertical] sector shaft.
a. Are these bushings still available?
b. Would changing the bushings [plus accompanying seals for the rain] fix the slack steering problem? Manual says Steering Gear Unit can be overhauled without having to prop up engine and remove entire front end. Otherwise, it is that major operation and carry the Unit down to my Friendly Local Machine Shop. The "Search" function is down for maintenance, so I may be repeating an existing Discussion Post. Thanks in advance, for your help.
