I have just replaced the steering box, the old had a lot of excessive play that I couldn't adjust out.

At the moment, the play is about 1/2" either way. It feels much better on the road, is this normal play for this vehicle?
 
Thanks. At the end of the day I feel I am being picky. The play prior to replacing was totally excessive and is so much better now.

The intermediate staff is new, together with the front track rod and a recon steering box. I assume the only thing left is the rear track rod. I didn't find any play in there but I will check again and see if the new intermediate shaft has any play.

You only have one track rod. The one in front of the axle is the drag link. :):)
