Fks binding problem

Hey guys, one of my heel pieces on both sides of the assembly has some play where the brake assembly connects to the actual metal plastic spring assembly that holds your boot in. It’s right between where the DIN assembly connects to the brake assembly arms right beneath the forward pressure screws. The whole din assembly actually wiggles and has a bit of room as if you were to be able to tighten the forward pressure screws in more...but not the actual forward pressure since that adjusts lower on the arm if that makes sense.

Here’s a photo of where the play is...I’ve tried tightening the forward pressure screws even more but can’t seem to...the forward pressure on the other side of the rod even seem to be seized up, any advice?

Get them torque tested.

I was thinking this would probably be a waste of time since I know the play isn’t supposed to be there though correct?

The play isn't supposed to be there but the bindings probably still function correctly, you'll just need to check that they're releasing at the right values.

After use and a bit of abuse, you will get dildo play. I have 3 pairs of pivots and they all have a bit of play in them. That being said they still release at the correct values and wont budge from the binding plate itself when yanked at so Im calling em good. Any shop will probably be able to release test them for free if you bring the sticks in.
