Trying to get my gear legs installed but can't get the brake mount flanges to slide over the axle. Have used emory cloth to sand inside of flanges and also used the emory cloth to try and sand the non-threaded part of the main axles but not quite there yet and worked quite a while on the first one.
Wheel doesn't slide on either, so look to me like the axle is just slightly too big around.
This is an older slow build 6A (been working slowly for 10 years). Anybody had a similar problem? Should I just be greasing the axle up and using wood/hammer combo to force it on?
Thanks for any suggestions/help.
