Those OEM bushed bell cranks were a piece of junk from the start. Bushings need a little clearance to perform properly. The bearing bell cranks from Henderson have no clearance (play).
There is a lot of pressure on those bell cranks to change the steering motion 90°, thus slop in the steering wheel.
You did a good thing spending a few $$ with Henderson.

And the pressure when turning steering wheel back and forth while sitting still is even greater than when driving down the road.
It takes plenty of effort to move a rolling wheel to steer but when the tire is gripping the floor/pavement while checking for play it takes even more.
