Critter,

This is likely the bearing at the top of the steering column. It has a nylon/plastic part that is notorious for wearing out and causing play at the top.

You can replace the bearing, but it is a tough job. Alternatively, there is special repair part for this.

It is a little "sleeve" that slides inside the existing bearing. It replaces the worn out nylon piece. Real easy to install since you don't need to pull the bearing.

I assume Pelican carries this item.
