cool nice work. I guess i could of googled it as well? I guess you need to give them specs on the thickness for them to line them back to?

Thanks Aaron, that makes a lot more sense. As usual, "you da man".

You do not remove the friction material. You remove a little bit off of the metal pad that rests on the cam.... if needed. You can use a file, die grinder, or hand grinder. It is an easy job and takes less than a minute. It is pretty uncommon to need to do that but it does happen occasionally if the circumstances are just right. Some linings are extra thick for some reason (see below).
Unfortunately, this is just another case where there is just not enough demand for a product. There is just one company having these made and we are at their mercy. The quality is fine for what they are but could certainly be better. They function just fine and durability is fine but there are some irregularities with the initial fit. I just don't have the budget right now to get a few thousand shoes made that fit only 1 model. The minimum production run would last us about 60 years.
My bad...sorry all. Mis-read Aaron's instructions
