Mikie, Add a washer to the bolt. Add grease to bolt threads. Remove grease from the angled interface of the tilt mechanism. If necc., rough sand the interface"againt the grain" of the tilt axis] ( last resort, only ness. On Japanese posts so far). Pay homage to the appropriate gods.

I only read the CR digest, so I don't know if my question has been addressed. What is a source for a SR seat binding bolt with an allen nut??? The seat on my SR post keeps slipping/tilting, so I've broken 2 bolts trying to lock it down. HELP . . . !!!
