    Figured I would post how it turned out.

    So in desperation last night I took a course file and shaved off enough material from the cast iron center so they would slide on. It was only about a millimeter of material, shouldn't cause any...

    I don't see how it could do any rattle dampening, it's on 2 fixed screws. The screws don't match the others, they are Phillips 10-24, all the other screws are Torx M6.
