[R-390] Zero adjust on R-390 receiver

[Bob Young]

OK I have it upside down on the floor and one side of the clutch goes in farther than the other side, something is binding it or or it appears that way. Hard to tell with the front plate on. If I put a very thin screwdriver in there that part of the clutch will open more but then the other side binds against the mating surface. I think I'm goping to have to take it apart to really see what's going on. The three little rods seem to be ok and not binding.
