Just finished installing the balancer, and power steering pulley on Holty's truck, and the P/S pulley had the same for/aft movement when fully seated. Not a lot, but just enough to hear/feel it move. Sounds like that's common on these systems. I don't think it's anything to worry about.

good deal, that's what I was hoping for this is one of those things you don't realize you need to check until you notice it later on
