guess that was just unlucky.
One of my friends had his stage 1 conversion done there on his 4x4 sapphire about 10yrs ago, it went really well too, but like you said it started getting faster!
Same thing had happened with the actuator but luckily we sussed it in time. Some threadlock on the bolts sorted it, it ran like a dream for years after,never missed a beat.
