I have the same problem. Some collets have a metric thread, others an imperial. So, I had to make a new drawbar (it's just C.R.S.) and swap them out as the need arises.
Hint: use a hex collet block to make the wrench flats on the top to get them even all around.
I marked the metric ones with a spot of paint, and the metric drawbar as well, to avoid confusion.
