Default Radius ball cap

Went on a really fun outing with the Fort Wort Model A Club this past weekend and while the car did wonderful (seeing lots of returns on maintenance performed!!) I do have a bit of steering wondering and will be going through the Les Andrews book but did noticed the Radius ball "pops" with steering input while static. No pop or clunk when the car is in motion.



I crawled under the car and can actually see the "pop" so guessing time for some maintenance in that area...



Other than the replacement cap, felt and "washer spacer" anything unusual I need to know before I dig in to this?



The ball itself could be bad which some say weld and reshape but hoping it is a lot simpler than that...
