Manual Steering Box

I need some advise on adjusting the slop in the Manual Steering Box. I've got good tie rod ends but the idler arm has some back and forth slop with the wheels pointed straight ahead. I moved the adjusting screw clockwise a little over 1 full turn and it seemed to help but I don't know how far is too far with the adjusting screw.

Anybody have experience in this. Also, when do you know when it's time to rebuild the steering box?

Thanks fellas!
