All it would take to make the plate work is to grind or file on the plate at the lifter or lifters that is to tight on maybe one or two lifters, then adjust the plate down accordingly. A couple lifters are not letting the plate drop enough. I mentioned it a few posts earlier, Randy’s videos have said the exact same thing.

If your not willing to grind on the plate, bale on these 2148s and get a link bars set up. Personally I would get these: https://butlerperformance.com/i-2445...tegory:1234800
I too mentioned the grinding early on (post 92) - according to Randy it’s required to fine tune. Not saying that will definitely solve the issue but it should be tried.
