When moving the tire it should have very little movement at the tire and the ball joint.

That is how you check ball joints on a car, not sure it translates well with buggys.
On a car if you grab the tire at 12 o'clock and 6 o'clock and push/pull, if you have movement check ball joints.
If you do the same at 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock check tie rods.
If you have movement doing both check wheel bearing.
