Good you mentioned this Pyramid - forgot about that. When I place the alu arms on the pins, they move very freely indeed. The suspension arms only bind after I've put the fastening screw in But even if I loosen it off a little, then it still binds.

I'll take another look at it before starting any material removal
same problem i had. it only binds after screwing it onto the arms. I went for the easy way out and loosened the grub screws that hold the hinge pins and voila...no more binds. i also greased the pins with AE's Green Slime and now the arms move really nice. You might wanna add some CA onto the grub screws and tighten it just enough so it doesn't grab the pins...but deep enough so that it goes onto the square slot on the pins. Hope this makes sense....
