actually the jcm in the clothing does have to be slaved to the base figure to work, as poser doesnt actually keep track of the clothing joint rotation when it is conformed, its considered slave to the base figure. unfortunately Indoda you have discovered one of the "Features" of poser where it rewrites the numbers whether you want them or not. the figure 1 part is fine but you need to delete the :1 after the node that the dial is in in this case your rForeArm, so you want to do that hand editing and then not resave the cr2 in poser.
