New ram base doesn't fit

[Psycho91]

Got a new ram base cause I broke a barb off in my old one, I ordered the bigger 10-32 barbed base and it won't screw into my ram housing, old one works just fine and even old brass ones work, I'm guessing the threading is just different or maybe it's just a hair bigger

at this point I'm just ready to buy a ST ram 😂

Got pics?

Sounds like you might just have a mis-made part. Or... I wonder if you got sent an Empire ram base accidentally?

Ok like Jordan guessed the starting threads weren't 100% cut right took a wrench to see if it would thread on and it did, got lucky this time lol

Cases like these are exactly why a thread file is one of my favorite tools
