steering fix

99 dodge has a slop in the steering. It will wonder back and forth on the road with out turning the wheel. I get almost 1/8th to 1/4 turn of play and still go straight. I have luke links all arround. I am affraid that it is my steering box. I have 160,000 on her now but still dont understand how it can be shot. Any suggestions on how to tight'n it up? can you adjust it? is there a box out there that is good that is not mega $
