Look in the official hpi sprint 2 thread on page 45, It's all there explained very well by uncle vinnie.
RPM ball cup's take alot of the slop away. I also have a spring under the middle tie rod. the spring pull's the steering in tight while the tie rod is pushing the steering apart giving me super tight steering.

I use RPM ball cups on all of my 1/10 cars. I also use Lunsford Ti ball studs too on some of my better cars, they do not wear out at all.
