Smoe minor filing may be necessary for clearance. I have not yet tried this but it beats buying a new plate and spending an hour or more filing to fit. --------- I had mentioned earlier this year (2/16) that the keyframe end pins might be eccentric in some instances. If the pin is eccentric, by turning the pin in its hole, there would be a low side and a high side. Maybe what I encountered was a keyframe end pin that had been bent [Ben Ben(t)] ;-) Scott's method seems like a great way to handle the situation.
