Steering wheel play

So I got an 02 max with 181k miles on it, with a replaced steering rack, new tie rod ends, new control ares, a recent rotation and balance, and a new driver side cv, and my steering wheel has about an 1 1/2 of play at top dead center, what is something I can do to fix this? After market wheel? Tighten the steering bolt, new steering column?
