I'm pretty sure the pitman arm to relay rod connection shouldn't have any play in it. It looks really loose there. I'm not sure if there is a way to rebuild a pitman arm or if you just have to buy a new one. I couldn't see the idler arm side but if the pitman arm is trashed I'm willing to bet the ider arm bushing is even worse. Didn't your truck have a recall on the relay rod?

Mine has a little play just like that. Its not as bad, but im assuming its okay since almost all the front end parts have less then 6 months on them.
