My P 47,P51 and spitfire have adjustments screws to prevent the retract wires from rotating. To adjust remove the retract from the plane enough to be able to see two brass holes on the side of the base of the retract.(one on each side)One of them will have a set screw inside of them.Just tightened it with an allen wrench and that should take care of the play.It may be worth while to apply locktite. Hope that helps..
