Project: Q+2     -     Entry

Oct 12, 2023 0.8 Wheel Work Category: Landing Gear
Discovered that adding washers between the wheel and brake mount fixed the clamping/interference issue since receipt that caused the brake rotor not to run true.

Found that the right wheel caliper had 3 extra half height washers under half the mounting bolts for some reason. Removing them allowed the caliper to run true.

Considering purchase of a 1/2 inch | 12.7 mm burr to extend the tube stem half hole into a slot. The new Azusalite wheels have a wheel half with no hole and another half with a slot, presumably to accommodate the newer inner tubes with offset stems and correct the stem/tire pinching issue plaguing Quickies: https://q-list.groups.io/g/main/topic/brake_noise_flat_tire/98915131
