Sounds like your bottom bush might be too tall. What bushes you using?

Fitz,
I think he means the the pivot cups pokin out of the baseplate hole too far,

Toby,
my indies,trackers,fury's have a flush pivot cup but the r-II's poke out about 2mm.
Make sure the pivot cups seated properly in the base plate first,
if it is, maybe cut it down a mm til everything seats square.
Kingpin should be roughly in the centre of the hanger pivot hole.
This pics mine with a spherical fitted in the baseplate pivot.

i'm using venoms and i have one pink and one normal randal, the normal randal is fine but the top bushing on the pink randal overhangs the seat when the hangers flipped, i'll try cutting the pivot cup down

could the pink paint make everything a bit bigget??? cus the pivot cup seems to be sitting much lower in the base plate, (closer to the little hole at the bottom of the base plate) in the normal randal

Paint would make it smaller.

I think Its because they put new pivot cups in the pink randal trucks they all have a little over hang with the standard pivot cup they put in the trucks i have had a few people ask about that. Not unless your is moving around than thats not right..
