Think my steering gear is going bad

I have some freeplay in the steering wheel and was thinking maybe it's the dogbone but then I was looking at the pitman arm I see some power steering fluid seeping out. Looks like a bad seal in the gearbox. Would replacing the seal help or should I get a junkyard box for $85? I can get a reman'd gearbox for $231 + $100 core.

Check your center link and TREs, the center link will give you the most slop in the wheel as well as a bang when you hit bumps. The center link and the TREs can all be purchased at NAPA for a resonable amount.
