Oversized stems will load the lock incorrectly and split them...
Improperly machined taper in the retainers will also cause a failure...
See this mismatch a lot with imported parts that people bring in...
There is a big difference between an imported set of $60 titanium retainers and a set machined in the USA that'll run you $160!!! You choose...
