Oh evil one,
Rack is loose? That's 4 bolts that hold it to the sub frame. How much "play" do you have in the steering wheel? I think 5/8" motion is the limit at the top of the wheel, actually any where on the wheel. There is an adjustment for the rack and pinion "backlash". Tie rods bad maybe? Grab the front of the tire and push it in and out. Do you hear a knock and feel play? No use taking out the rack if it's not leaking.
