look here
lots of answers and perhaps some excellent help. There is an excellent section on tuning the suspension as well.
A photo would really help, I'm havin a tough problen visualising what you are saying...
if you like, you can put the whole works into a freezer, and then once cold, heat the subplatter with a torch, the shaft should come right off, and the do whatever for a fix. A spacer could be cut to go between the spindle and the bearing well. (Loctite makes some stuff called "tough metal" that can be used to build a "spacer" if need be, then use red loctite to seal the spindle to the sub-platter. Red loctite requires heat (from a torch) to release.

I scanned the analog dept everywhere I could but could find just about everything but bearing/spindle length etc.
I used Locktite blue but the actual real load is not that much so unless it breaks down for another reason, I doubt it would be from the stress. The sub platter was so loose I could get the pin out with a few KG of pressure at room temp.
Nanook, I am not sure what you do not understand exactly but effectively the “bond/press fit” between spindle (which is half of the bearing on the other side of the sub) became loose and the sub platter slid down a few mm so that the spinning platter now fouled the works. Slowly by trial and error I have gotten to a spindle in platter "location' that works and looks right from looking at many photos… I secured it at that position with Locktite.
Thanks for all the help from all, this actually turned in to quite a serious thread…..

ya after I re-read your original post I got it. Aluminum expands and contracts at a much higher rate than steel. Blue Loctite should only require a force be applied to break the seal, so purhaps a better idea until you know if it will work on a permanent basis. As far as the analog dept, a great resource.
