Steering is a pet peeve of mine. Any kind of slop in the steering angers me to the point of wanting to get a new vehicle. Having said that I'm trying to get a feel for how much steering slop a new 80 series has. Right now I'm getting about a inch of slop which is within specs, but makes wandering more pronounced since the wheels have about that inch of travel to do whatever the hell they want without my input.

Recently I drove a friends 80 and noticed that he had no slop at all in his steering. I didn't know that was possible. So I'm making this a poll to see how much slop everyone has.

I know most slop is in the tie rods, and or knuckles but there can also be slop in the steering box. In my case it's in the box (though I need to double check this since I haven't checked the linkages for slop in a while).
