While I wait on the GMCMI thumb drive / manuals to show up, I had a quick technical question so that I can at least know what direction I'm going to have to go with this part of the coach. I BELIEVE the max end play for the intermediate and rear control arms is 1/8" based on what I've seen on this forum. I'm getting around 3/8 of an inch. Here is a short video: https://youtu.be/HuFoGHv9z_A

My questions for the group:

1) Is there any chance I can correct this with end hat adjustment (if they are not seized in place)
2) Will a Tru Track or similar system be a suitable remedy OR
3) With this much play is bogey pin replacement imminent.

Obviously looking to avoid option #3 as this is involved and (I think) a bit more money.
