i do have a couple of questions for you if you don't mind though...

1. did you put the center diff cover on and screw it down before you sanded the gear?

(the oval looking thing that goes over the center diff.)

the reason i ask is if it's not screwed down evenly or at all yet, the mount and the mount on the other side can sometimes be mis-aligned and cause the binding. it's happend to me before i put it on.

2. you said you've re-built your roller many times, so this one might sound dumb, but sometimes i forget about it too....did you tighten the diff screws that hold on the gear in a star pattern like it says in the manual? i've done it in the wrong order before and it had rubbed against the mount too. after i re-did it the correct way, it was fine.
