So i recently build a Avante and have been driving it arround the house but the ball-ends just keep failing. When building the kit they already seemed to have too much play, and pinching them in the press only does so much. Are there any replacements that are a direct fit? Or could this be covered under warranty?

So I discovered this weekend that my ageing FF01 doesn't handle well at all. And although it could be blamed on inappropriate tyres and a very wet track, I did notice a huge amount of slop in pretty much every part of the suspension. Difficult to see what can be done about sloppy arms (bar replacing them) but there must be an easy solution to the sloppy ball end problem. Is there a recommended upgrade or replacement for worn ball ends? I'd consider switching from bolt-type balls with closed cups to nut-type balls (with the hex recess in the top) and open cups so I don't have to pop the joints to service the car, but to be honest I don't do a lot of servicing on it anyway. It only comes out for the odd bash or maybe a fun race here and there. Is there a way to reduce slop in FF01 arms, bar replacing them with new? I guess they're just worn after years of bashing. Thanks
