Tony,
As you have clearly had freely moving controls at one stage, it
should not be too difficult to regain this situation by slackening the
retaining nuts and bolts on these bearings. It should then be possible
to make the freedom of movement permanent by either packing them with
more flox or using tapered shims. I used pieces of epoxy printed circuit
for this purpose.
