Thnks, that was the first thing I suspected, too. Unfortunately, the play is definitely in the knuckle. There is a two piece nylon bushing in there that maintains tension with a spring. My suspicion is that the spring broke, allowing the bushings to loosen up. They cannot come out, so the steering is not going to just 'go away', but it does act like a loose steering box. The big clue was the steering wheel turning back and forth about an inch, and the input shaft to the steering gearbox not moving.

Got it...now I understand the problem. My symptom was the same (play in the wheel) but a different cause. Good luck sorting out your problem!
