Check out the PAG diagram, there are 2 U joints, 1 Needle bearing under the donut bushing. My tutorial also has some details. Remember no need to remove the sway bar, it is a biotch to replace. when car is raised.
I have the car raised and the metal cover plate off so I was able investigate where the play is. I was able to pretty much determine it was not in the steering shaft and the two U-Joints and it is not in the tie rods and attachment to the wheels. The Turbo tie rods are only two years old and I replaced the ball joints (bottom of the struts) just last winter. I can't wait to get in there to see what I find. I miss my Porsche, especially since we have such nice fall weather right now.
