REFLECTOR: Main wheel camber

[Laurence Coen]

Tom,

I used the following procedure to get the final "set" of the wheels.  I 
sanded the area on the gear leg where the Matco axel mounts.  The amount of 
material you have to remove is insignificant.  When the angles are good, 
remove the axel and cover the mating surface with tape and wax the bolts. 
Then coat the mating gear leg with flox/cabosil to fill any imperfections, 
reassemble and let cure.  Take it apart one more time and remove the tape 
and reassemble. Done!  If you have an RG you'll have to readjust the gear 
cable because the wheel will sit in the well differently.
