Not totally sure what you're having issues with but I think I'm right in saying it's the main nut. Does sound a bit like the usual repro part problem of being in the land of nearly right a Brian said many times. Some pics would be handy, why are you changing these parts?

Hi Sandy there was a bit of play on steering left to right I thought change top first if that didn’t make any difference then go to the bottom end and take some shims out I have been in touch with the supplier and he said the same thing so I could be down £50 but I think they might send another one out 🤞🏻 thanks for your help and reply .
