Interesting , I thought I was the only one having this problem, but with
only one hub, I found that I had a groove or nick in the aluminum from
beating on the cap, once that was removed the  cap (1 race ) has stayed on,
ran without it for at while, thought I might have had a bearing problem so
I had to "dig in" to see what was throwing the cap off. Glad someone is
making a better part to fit.
