Help with some yoyos

Sup guys, I wonder if you can help me with 2 yoyos that I got recently.

First, I got an 888 with small bearing and it came with no pads (i tried to put CBC Small bearing pads but those don’t fit properly) and second, I got an iYoyo Shooting Star but one of the bearing seats inserts is not positioned properly, causing the bearing to rest completely on the bottom of the bearing cavity and not on the seat itself, making the yoyo responsive. What can I do to make these yoyos at least playable? DD:

Small bearing 888s were made pre pads so you will probably need to just use flowable silicone and redo the silicone that was in there. As far as the bearing seats you can make one out of a thin washer or cut card stock to create the shelf for the bearing seat.

Thx man, fortunately I was able to repair the bearing seat problem by pushing the whole metal insert to it’s place with a hammer and a chisel lol, now it works pretty good and I just recessed the silicone groove of the 888, i’m gonna wait until tomorrow to see how it works. :))
