Kyle,
I don't know the answer to your question, but if you find out that it is the
press weld jobbie, change it out for the welded 5th.
Dick Tillinger just sold me one for $80.
He is a pleasure to deal with and he sent the gear fast.
You can find the number to reach him from the list FAQ intro e-mail (sorry I
don't have the number with me).
Good luck.
