ball cups are expendables and should be replaced regularly... since the kit came in 2nd hand, suggest you replace them. never heard of ballcups going tight though... maybe either the ball studs or the ball cups are wrong?

yes, you can shim the spur shaft in the gearbox to minimize side-to-side play. also check if the bearing holding the shaft is worn out... might need to be replaced too.

hths.
Good, thanks. I'm not sure why some are stiff either, but both parts are correct; blue aluminum 5mm connectors and the grey low friction 5mm ball ends.
