    There is excessive play in the steering gear. Tightening up adjustments help
    a little, but it still remains. New (actually remanufactured) gear costs
    around 300$ if I ship it from States; local dealer cost is ~700$ plus
    labour. However, I can get it overhauled for about 180$ including
    removal/reinstallation - much cheaper. Any experience with steering gear
    overhauls - how easy it is, what is expected service life before it goes
    again etc?

    To rule out other steering issues I've replaced upper & lower ball joints,
    tie rods, pitman arm and shocks - all of these were in need of replacement
    anyway.

    TIA,
    Peter
