Mike - I encountered the identical problem on my Super H. I came up with a cheap solution - not as elegant as building up and remachining the pivot shaft, but it did the trick:

First I knocked the upper bushing back out of the fixed bolster. Then I inserted a piece thin shim stock between the busing bore in the casting and the OD of the bushing shell when driving the bushing back in. I cut the shim so it fit around half the circumference of the bushing, and oriented it so it was on the left side of the tractor. Adding the shim effectively moved the sector gear closer to the worm, and it tightened the bushing around the (worn) pivot shaft bearing surface. This eliminated the radial play at the sector gear. The tractor now steers great - no play at all.

Finding the right thickness of shim stock was a trial and error process - think I wound up using .007".
