Text Box: Spindle Clamp Nut; This nut holds the front wheel on and sets the Taper Bearing clearances. The original nut only allowed for finite adjustment positions, which could end up with too much clearance or too little, result, too much rolling resistance or too much wheel play, which could result in handling issues. The new nut allows for infinite adjustment to perfectly tune to the desired fit. I designed the nut in AutoCAD Inventor, then machined them on my Lathe and Milling Machine. The threads were single point cut.
