I have just fitted the front bearings and wheels onto the axles and the bearings on 1 of the wheels are quite a loose fit in the wheel. So when the wheel is bolted onto the axle it is quite wobbly. Has anyone else come across this? Senna mclaren mp4/4 build complete mp4/4 build http://forum.model-space...spx?g=posts&t=12029

As you paying catch up, its always a good idea to first check the previous discussions http://forum.model-space...aspx?g=posts&t=7700
The upshot is (and after many have now completd and run their RB7), there has not been a problem as a result of a slight sloppy fit of the wheel bearings.

PTFE tape often works, but ensure that it's even otherwise it will create wheel bounce.

I ave found the loose bearings not to be a problem at all when running the car. Everything works great.
