Default wisebone binding

hi,

my front wishbones are binding badly and i dont want to go ahead an drill them out with a 3mm bit yet.

the hinge pins are 2.92mm so might be little slop as a result.

thanks

The drill bit you want for this is actually 7/64 inches.

Have a look at where it is binding.

Try just the front arms and see what it is like.

Are you running 30deg caster blocks, they're know to bind.
You'll need a 7/64" drill bit for the hinge pins on the B4, it will clean up the 30deg blocks make them free, with out getting slop into the suspension.
