Whenever I attempt to add the preload by tightening the cap (which is needed because the split lip ring isn't closing and I have lateral play in the steerer), the expander slips...and I have to crank on it some more. I tightened it once to test bar height and set the headset, and then once for final assembly...and once more to swap for a shorter stem, and it's completely stripped now. I'm gonna have to thread two nuts on it and tighten them against each other.

Geoff, you got PM. Thanks for the recommendations.
