I put my Sabre hangers on Randal plates to avoid clearance issues. 

You just need to customize your pivot cups to make them fit.

You can either wrap electrical tape around the original Sabre pivot cups 'til it fits the Randal plates, or you can make some cups out of bushings.

I went for the second option.

Another option is to redrill your wheelbase

Really dude!!!!

Does that look like a full size bushing? Does the file and all the urethane dust and the fact that Uan said you need to customise your bushing not give you a hint?

You don't have any griptape? Well get some. Its not that hard. cmon man
