I just bought some low profile ronstan jib cars and found that the fit in the track is super tight if fitting at all, am I missing something or do I now have to change out my jib tracks also?
Its an 85' H16 if that matters
Thanks

I found out that I need to open the track up more with a screw driver and hammer to make them run free.
Thanks anyway

Hmmm. I bought the same one earlier this year, along with one new track because one was dented. It fit perfectly in the 1978 track and just as well in the brand new(old style) track.
