John - If I understand you correctly; you are stating the sector shaft that the pitman arm is fastened to is moving left and right 1/4". There is an adjustment for this. On the opposite of the box from the shaft end there should be a bolt with locking nut (it will be on the engine side of the steering box) that will take up that play when turned in.

I hope I have explained this for you to understand.
