Default Car pulling, how much play should there be in wishbone bushes?

Still trying to track down an issue with the steering not being quite right after going over bumps or accelerating/braking.

Whilst I had the car up I used a 15cm lever on the rear bush in the front wishbones. I could move it side to side about a millimetre and a similar amount front to back. Anyone know how much these should move?

Also when dry steering (yes I know one shouldn't) the rack makes a bit of noise and clicks slightly as though something gives slightly. The rack bushes are good though so I'm at a loss.

Any ideas?
