Should be able to find the slop with a thorough inspection. I would hesitate at replacing parts before confirming they are out of spec (if it ain't broke, don't fix it) as aftermarket parts have a tendency to be much lower quality than original.
On top of the other parts, how are the tie rod boots? If you have a split then it doesn't take long for the ball and socket to attract debris/moisture that is captured in the grease and to wear quickly.
