When disconnecting autopilot on final approach; First Officer (pilot flying) noticed definite binding and a definite 'bump' in the control column when moving the elevator controls thru the neutral position. Also noticed an audible 'click' accompanying the bump and a bump could be felt in the First Officer's floor board. Not noticeable from the Captain's side. [This] occurs near the neutral position in the control column as the elevator controls are moved forward and aft past neutral. Otherwise; longitudinal flight control was normal through approach and landing. [I] contacted both Maintenance and Dispatch after arrival at gate.
MD-82 Captain reported his First Officer noticed binding and clicking in the elevator controls an approach. Aircraft was written up after landing.
