Has anyone else had issues with the threads in this mount? Installed on the passenger side position and the ball tightened as expected. When installing in the middle and driver side position, I was not able to tighten so the ball would not stop moving. When I removed the bolt in each of those positions, the threads from the mount were on the bolt (so the mount is stripped). Just wondering if anyone else experienced this as well?

Any trick to eliminating the small movement this piece has? I've followed the instructions (backing off, pulling mount towards the dash), but that hasn't fixed it. Again, it's a small amount, but I figured it'd be as movement free as the stock piece. Maybe a strip of automotive doublesided tape will be my next try between the dash/mount.
I've installed SLAPS on four different Broncos. There was something going on with the dash on one of them. I chalk it up to OEM Ford tolerances and the metal in the dash. Perhaps 3M VHB could shore up that gap/slop.
