Ball stud/z bar bushing?

What goes here to make it nice and tight? Frame side is tight. Block side is sloppy

I assume this. But don’t see how that won’t just push in the z bar

There is a step inside the Z bar,or should be, just press in and it will bottom out.

Check out this thread. When I did mine I laid out the parts to make sure I had it right.

Thanks. The more i looked at mine. It definitely seems like I need something in the groves of the ball.

The more I’ve read. Seems two plastic seats go on either side of the frame side ball. But, the block side ball doesn’t get a seat? I understand it has to be able to move being on the block but just seems like it moves a lot. With this design maybe the block side ball is just worn small?
