Play in the steering

I have around 1/2" play from left to right in my steering. Upon looking
up the part numbers on real oem they are the same rack as the e36 evo.

My question is do I need to replace the whole rack or is there a bush/washer or universal joint of some sorts that needs changing?

Check what the oem offest is ment to be for your model zed. ( search on here ) Also check what the offset is on the wheels you have and get spacers that make up the gap. Are they genuine M3 wheels? if so you have 4 x fronts.
