If your'e runing out of threads, check the slleeve and bearings in the carrier! Also sometimes the aluminum sprocket flange wears on the axle!

is the retaining clip in place? or is the clip worn to the point that the antifad is sliding out???

i was tring to hold the clip in with 2 screwdrivers. and no luck, taking it to local motosports shop today for them to look at.....maybe it something simple.

take the clip off the axle and squeeze it with some pliers to make it smaller and put it back on the axle..it should fit a lot snugger and hold in the groove. my guess is its coming out of the groove when you tighten it up..or just get a RAD locknut or an anti fade hub..good luck
