Default B44.1 slipper loosening on own

Guys
Ive not had this problem before just wondering if anyone can help.

New b44.1 only done 3 meetings, all standard slipper parts other than spur replaced with a jconcepts silent spur and the plates are the hi torque ones.

I adjust the slipper on track before start and it's fine, by the time I've finished it's loosened off again! Don't get me wrong it's not loose enough not to give drive but from a standing start it slips its nads off for 4-6ft!

I've replaced the rubber inside the adjuster but still doing the same thing

Is the slipped collar moving? Masure with a vernier.

So you think it's the White bit the long screw goes into?

The pads might be glazed from slipping, if you change the diff nut as mentioned ^^^^^^ give the slipper pads a light roughing up with some sand paper as well.

run a little threadlock on the slipper shaft threads...put the nut on, then take back off, then leave overnight to dry.

This will give the thread a small coating of threadlock which will hold it.
Also try the pad roughening technique as mentioned.

:-)
