Gantry play? Pom wheels due for replacement?

So ive had some weird banding, but a lot of that was from a very tweaked z rod which I replaced. Fixed at 95% of it. Well I was tramming my bed, and noticed two things: my printer head would hit the bed slightly on initial location to the 1-6 points until adjusted into spec(bed too high/head too low?) And it would then lift the head slightly causing this play. Thoughts? Its been printing pretty ok as of late. But ive got another 2 weeks worth of prints i want to be decent.

So I want to get yalls thoughts on this. Currently breaking in a forged b58, with a built 8hp50 transmission. I basically let it warm up enough to top off coolant and start casually driving it around. Now normally id start doing more aggressive pulls to seat the rings. However the transmission wants normal city driving to break in for 500 miles. Whats your opinion on best procedure to break in things?
