I agree the b4 has more slop than the 22, but the 22 has slop by my personal definition.
Neither mine nor my buddy's 22's have any slop in the rear (side to side wobble or forwards /backwards sliding) but we both run the Aluminum Suspension hangers and hardware so it fits rather snug. On mine the left side was binding a tad so I places a little mothers in the hangers and polished them just enough so the arm would drop under its own weight.

I traded my 22 for my 4.2 long ago because a local guy bought a 4.2 and when I drove it I instantly knew I was back home. My buddy however refused to see the light and struggled with his 22's until he bought the Exotek Bell Crank systems a few weeks back and NOW his cars are high-end worthy, and the front ends are crisp!
