Leland,
I have had the same thing you are describing in the past but found the problem in a different area.
Get someone to sit in the seat and move the wheel. Put your food against the tire on both sides to stop the movement and see where the play is in the system.
I found one car where the rack was moving on the frame and that was where the play was, not in the tie rods, steering wheel or bearings.
