Mr. Dong believes the same thing. ...That the tension plate is hitting the set screws. I'd bet a beer that this is why Pete said this is causing the noise. I say it's not.

Wes, this is fantastic.

The slot is actually smaller due to the rounded corners, but it's deeper than the R2's. I tried two tension plates...even 3 to fill the void, but the pop is still as loud as ever. I don't understand why ALL R3's don't make the noise. And Glenn, you're right on about the R3's REQUIRING preload. Just ...

That's another good point about preload adjustment....even in the R3's, you can get rid of the slop in the hanger/kingpin by tightening the preload. But if you don't want any preload, you have to install the shims or live with a bit of play.

If you take the bushing out of an R2 and try to find any play in the hanger and kingpin assembly, you probably wont. (unless you're Vlad) At least I haven't after several months of use. The R3's, however, have a little slop. If you take the bushing out, you might find that the hanger will move (slig...
