i'm about to put in an order for bearings, just hoping to get some insight in case that doesnt solve it.
It would be easier to help you if you offer us more info which exact damper you speak about, and if you use P45L / AT78+OR152S / P45R.
As i guess now, you may use D2.2 with P45R rubber balls and i would suspect you may have to much pressure in one of your dampers.
I recommend you to watch following video and check the steps of building.

If the bearings are fine as you say, it's not an issue.
Also make sure to not clamp the dampers to much into AM17XL/R. Otherwise you can deform the case of dampers and this result in hard/stiff moving dampers also.
