That's why a split collar lens support or telescope ring would be ideal. I just checked the one I mentioned on my 400mm lens and it is 95 to 96mm in diameter but would be Ok for slightly above 96 or even 97 with the felt changed or removed and it is only 19mm thick.
I'm not sure if it's the Parallax brand telescope ring: possibly not????
I use it to act as part of a double support arrangement for a heavy 400mm lens where the lens is supported by its integral tripod support foot as well as by a clamping collar (telescope ring) towards the rear of the lens near the filter drawer and then all coupled together by mounting these on a dovetail plate.
