Vibration in front end on 86 420 sel

Here's what I've done. Track rod bushings, left and right tie rods, and lower ball joints on both side. Idler arm bushing. I jack up the passenger front end. There is still a little play in the steering setup. I can still wiggle the wheel in the 9 and 3 o'clock, but not the 6 and 12 o'clock position. This doesn't occur in the driver side. The steering shock still is good, center tie rod appears good.

I have thought of wheel bearing, but wouln't the wheel wiggle in all position. It looks like the steering set up has play in it. Should I replace the steering shock and center tie rod? I'm not optimistic that it will solve the situation. Any thoughts?

Thanks,

John
