cassette lock ring

I do one 9 speeds cassette 13-28. I used cogs from 3 different cassettes i have i do one cassette. First i tried tight the lockring is broke one small pieces from the threads in the hub. I tried other lock ring the cassette is tight now is turn friendly but i notice when i screw in the lock ring is not do click noises when i tight. I tight the lock ring with wrench until is not tight no more. The cassette is turn as is should very friendly. That no click noise in the lock ring is normal?

Not really understanding, but-
11T lock rings are different from 11+T lock rings.
Did you get one mixed up?

Where did you get the cogs and lockrings from? Are you using parts that all came from the same manufacturer? Maybe you didn't use the right combination of cogs ans spacers?

When you put the stack of cogs and spacers onto the freehub does the top cog stand taller than the top of the freehub by at least 1-2mm? If not, you will never be able to tighten the lockring properly.

You should not be working on your own bike, let alone those belonging to other people. I'm still not sure if you are a legit poster, as you sprinkle perfectly grammatical phrases among what it generally nonsense. You have been directed multiple times to the bike co-ops in your area, yet you keep coming online with repetitive and odd posts.
