Check for play in the steering box sector shaft, the vertical one.

You need to get a bar on it and see if it moves up and down. The sway bar is a good place to pivot on .

If you can't adjust it out then it is time for a new box.

Don't forget to check bushings on your track bar too they will cause the bump in the pedals.
