Over time even the stock AE pillow balls can get loose in the arm. The more you hit stuff and/or adjust the camber the worse it gets. I have had the camber actually change significantly over the course of a main due to the pillow ball backing itself out. When the pillow balls start to get loose I have used CA to tighten them:
Take the pillow balls out of the arm and put a few drops of CA into the opening in the arm. Spread it around with a toothpick or such. Allow to dry. Then reinsert the pillow ball and voila it's tight again. I have been meaning to also try some ShoeGoo.
