Do you mean using the screw to hold it in while you put it back into place?
If so I've done that every time I've taken it out.
I'll be riding it as is for now as all the strange sounds have disappeared. Should anything pop up I'll be going in and measuring that thing.
Thank you all for your help and advice on this one. I'll be keeping this thread in mind should I have to reopen it and see what's wrong. I think this was a good first step at maintaining my bike (sans the 2 day broken bolt fiasco) on my own.
