CMT 796.001.00 Router Collet Extension 1/2-Inch

Cheap CMT 796.001.00 Router Collet Extension 1/2-Inch Review

I have a table mounted plunge router, with a lift. It is a pain to change bits. The extension made it possible to make above table changes. The problem for me was it was too long down the shafts. The router vibrated badly, then it seized up on the plunge shafts ?. The collet was running true, i ran a dial indicator on it. It just moves the router too far down the shafts. Took it off and the lift quit jamming and no vibration. The router is an Hitachi 12MV and i notice the shaft guides are shorter than some brands ??.
