Baller bbruzzese Posted May 13, 2016 Baller Report Posted May 13, 2016 I just got my wife a new Vapor and am having trouble mounting the bindings in the correct position. The release mech mount screws interfere with the binding mount screws (see attached pic). Anybody else had this problem? How'd you get around it? Thanks!
Baller BRY Posted May 13, 2016 Baller Report Posted May 13, 2016 I use a larger head screw and washer (more holding surface) and ground on one side of each till it fit. Can use a hand file but a Dremel is quicker.
Baller Fehlindra Posted May 14, 2016 Baller Report Posted May 14, 2016 maybe use an lowprofile hex screw and a wrench that you trim down so it fits under the other screw
Baller skier2788 Posted May 14, 2016 Baller Report Posted May 14, 2016 @bbruzzese I had a similar issue. Only way around mine was to order a monoplate and not use those inserts.
Baller Nando Posted May 14, 2016 Baller Report Posted May 14, 2016 I was able to loosen the release mount from the plate,insert the screw under it, re-tighten the release and mount it. It works fine. Just have to always screw that position into the ski first, but it fits and doesn't interfere with the release. Yours may be a little different, hard to tell- good luck.
Baller Deanoski Posted May 14, 2016 Baller Report Posted May 14, 2016 just sand off one side of a big washer problem solved
Baller Waternut Posted May 14, 2016 Baller Report Posted May 14, 2016 I used a countersunk screw and filed cut away the dimpled washer. Make sure you use loctite in those holes because they'll want to back out easier.
Baller bbruzzese Posted May 15, 2016 Author Baller Report Posted May 15, 2016 Was able remove release mech, position and attach binding then replace release mechanism. Thanks for,all the help!
