Default Steering Rack Noise?

I have a 2002 LS with 96k miles and recently it has been making some weird noise. After performing a dry park test, I noticed some play in the steering rack. Anyone know if i can just replace the bushings or would i I have to order a new steering rack? Any input is appreciated.

Doubt it's the bushes themselves. Also may not necessarily be the rack but the linkage in the column. Have it professionally diagnosed. Racks are not common at all.
