Yup I'm using the proper tools, I'm not the type to try and do something cheaply at the risk of ruining something. I tightened my lockring really really good two days ago and checked it today and it only loosened a little bit. But the thing is I tightened it just as good the first time when it slipped.

At any rate I ordered a DA cog and lockring.

And why is BD commenting on the very first post? ha.
