That sucks!
I got the taller ones and they fit in my knuckles nice but I still have movement. Been pm ing back and forth with Erik measurements trying to resolve it. "thumbsup"

Finally decided to figure out what to do with my knuckle hat issue so I could run my rig this weekend. "thumbsup"
So with a little brain storming with Roksloski and 8-454 we got it figured out. Luckily I had 2 sets because it took 2 from each set. After some cleaning up of the knuckle hat holes by chucking up some fine grit sand paper in my new drill press we cleaned up the holes. The first set I got were tight and would not move in the holes and those were then used in the bottom of the knuckle. When I tried to use them in the top and tighten the screws the knuckle was bound up. Then I measured the thickness of the knuckle and found the top of the knuckle to be a 1/64" thicker. After determining that I used the taller hats Erik sent me and everything works great now.

Thanks again D_lux, sloski and 8-454. "thumbsup"

Random. LOL.

Glad you got it figured out.

Random. LOL.

Glad you got it figured out.

I also found the the c on my newage berg axle is 23.80mm and the c on a enroute berg axle of Roksloski's is 24.10mm.
The VP knuckles that I used were purchased when VP started building them. I bought them from someone who never put there berg together and they were my spare set. Don't know if that means anything?
But it's all good now. "thumbsup"
