front end movement

[rusty]

can anyone tell how much I should be able to move the front tire left to right by hand. With one wheel off the ground, I can move close to 3 inches each way, w/ no movement to the tire on the ground.

Is that much freeplay normal??

Seems like the linkage rotates up quite a bit.

I have cognito supports and FT tie rods on the way, but wonder if any of the other steering parts need replaced.

Any help is appreciated.
