This is how I mounted the ball joints to the axles. 6mm end mill to create a flat spot

Drill a hole for m3 tap

Then tap

Another axle down. One more left to mount. These are pretty time consuming considering Ive been tearing them all down and thread locking and shimming, greasing as I go. I used very strong thread lock on the ball joint mounts as the amount of threads are minimal.

Yeah so.... i have yet another build to distract me from the handful I already have going, but omg.. I'm excited about this one! I'll be posting a dedicated build thread at some point. Need to clear the MC8 off the bench first.
