Hi Rob, Since the keystick, and jack centre, has been well covered, and no cries of "BINGO". The wippen has moved over or rotated so that it is clipping the adjacent knuckle. A warped or unglued balancier post, can cause wippen A to raise wippen B by the drop screw pads rubbing. Knuckles deformed, or out of position, rubbing together.
