Will a C6 SCT work on a Vixen Porta Mount ll

[PXR-5]

Anyone with long term experience of using a C6 on a Porta Mount ll?

I had mine on one last summer, but now it seems the mount has loose axises. 

I took the mount apart and think it will work fine if the clouds ever leave 😁

But I am concerned the C6 caused the issue in the first place

I did mount my c5 on a vixen porta.  But it was a porta 1 so probably a bit more degraded like newer ones.   The mount was part of a used zenithstar 80.  An old an heavy one.   Only thing i noticed with this combo is sometimes slowmo up would slip for a second.   I tightened the axle? a bit more and the problem was gone.   The c5 didnt cause any problems at that time of slipping before thightening.   
It only occured with the heavier refractor.   

does the c6 not hit the mount? My old c5 almost touched it when attached to the porta

The OTA did not hit the mount.

I have decided though to not put it back on there. 

I'm just going to use the 127 and the C90 on it for now.
