There seems to be a lot of play in the steering of my 1986 Jeep CJ-7?

What could be the cause and is it dangerous to drive like that? What would it cost to fix?

    Most likely you need a new gear box. Possible that you can have it adjusted. Also check the steering linkage. Good Luck

    bushings, and yes, take it to a good shop, and let them inspect it; could be a low as a few hundred.
