[Closed] Niner fork dropout spacing slightly out ?

I've got a Niner Tapered QR Carbon Fork for my Salsa Fargo.
The front wheel doesn't stay put despite using both Salsa's own, and DT ratchet skewers. The movement is minimal but definitely there, so much so that even when QR are tightly applied, I can then grab the wheel and move is sideways against the fork, taking it slightly out of position (hence disc rub etc).

Any thoughts/solutions?
(I'm pretty sure I've got the correct caps etc on the DT Swiss hubs)

Sounds like something isn't fitting together right. Is the hub endcap sitting in the "well" of the dropout completely? I had an issue years ago with White Ind hub that had too large a contact area which didn't fit within the contact area of the dropout.

Needs pics obvs 😉
