If the steering wheel shaft has fore and aft play it it, it indicates the bearing at the end of the shaft is bad or not properly clamped in place. You say you removed the steering shaft out the front of the box. If you did that, you should have been able to check the bearing for play. That bearing is cheap and easy to replace. If any play at all it it, get a new one. When the shaft is put back in, the bearing must be clamped tight against the shoulder on the shaft by the castle nut and washer on the shaft. If not tight, you will have steering play. When you put the shaft and bearing back in the box, the outer race of the bearing must be clamped tightly in the box with the big hex plug. If the hex plug does not clamp the bearing race in tight, you will have steering play. I've found it necessary on occasion to use a machine washer to get the bearing clamped in. If you use a washer, take care that it only contacts the outer race and does not interfer with the other parts of the bearing.
