Can anyone direct me to a thread that explains how to fix a very sloppy power steering issue on. 2072? Have about a 1/4 turn of slip in it for some reason.

If your wheel turns past where it normally stops, you could very well have a going bad steering cylinder and might not be the steering unit itself, especially if the steering box isn't leaking. I do carry cylinders if you end up needing one as well as rebuild kits for the box itself.
 
Could also be something external, like rod end bearings on the cylinder or tie rods, worn axle pivot, etc. It would be a good idea to look over all of those items as well.
