Bikes: too many bikes from 1967 10s (5x2)Frejus to a Sumitomo Ti/Chorus aluminum 10s (10x2), plus one non-susp mtn bike I use as my commuter

Shimano freehubs are modular with the freehub attached to the shell, and the entire assembly floated on cup/cone bearings at either end.

see schematic / exploded view

So I can't understand how one end can be correctly adjusted, and the other side not.

Odds are the hub is fine, and you just need to correctly adjust the bearing (adjust cones) from the left.
