There was some discussion about that very subject on one of the FB SAAB groups a few days ago. I quickly scrolled through them last night but didn't find the specific post.
There appears to be a rack backlash adjustment under the steering input shaft, accessible from the bottom of the rack. The danger with these worn racks is that, if you get the play dialed down to where you want it in the middle of the steering range, it may bind as you get closer to full-right or full-left.
The rack in this SPG is its second one. IIRC, I got it from Sobstory (we SAABNet old-timers know how long it's been since they were in business.)
It would be truly good to be able to get new racks. There have to be some NOS units out there. Not so long ago, there was a still-in-the-crate manual transmission for sale.
