REFLECTOR: RG Questions

[Laurence Coen]

John,

The aluminum bushings have iolite bearing inserts so the bolt is supposed to turn with the gear leg.  The nut needs to be adjusted so that the bolt doesn't slide back and forth but not so tight as to prevent it from turning freely in the aluminum bushings.

  So, how tight should the nut be?

     The purpose of the nut is to keep the bolt from falling out, not to remove slop in the gear leg support.
