Hey everyone, I'm running a citizen k16. The part is .280 long with OD of .038 and has a .030 drilled completely thru. I'm having problems keeping clamping pressure on sub it keeps varying. I can't overclamp due to .004 wall thickness. Has anyone had issue similar to this.

Thanks
 
Sure - very similar, but with sizes with a zero or two added to yours!

The numbers themselves don't mean the world, mostly just the ratios.

I would check spindle to spindle concentricity with a Co-Ax or equiv to start with.
Another option may be to pull the guide bushing way back to allow flex room.

Kant hurt to rule out another issue...
