Using Teflon washer on DWF for first time. I have the washer pushed right up to the bending groove on car side then tight to the body. on the wheel side of the grove, there is approx. .040 gap. When going down tuning board the wheel runs right up on the washer and there's a gap between axle head and hub. Is this correct? do I need to tighten this up?
Thanks in advance,
John
 
On some cars I run it tight, like barely enough for light, than others more like a credit card gap. you should be good some where in the middle.
 
what 92s are u running the solid or the pro grooved ? Making a order and wanted to add some to my list.
