Can a cardin joint be re-built? mine is making nasty tink tink noises and the occasional crunch it has a small amount of movement in the cage (probably 1-2 mm)

Yep, it depends on what worn though, especially the ball joint in the middle.

a bit tricky you can buy a non roller bearing center ball its solid brass i used to make drivesharfts
dont use hammer and punch to fit the new unis use a hand press or vice
