Default How to clock berg axles?

Just got my first set of BERG axles and would like to clock them, but I am not sure how.

The tool is the easiest and best then there is the stickers I have done the stickers and lets say a guy could mess them up pretty easy if not paying attn. There is a thread here about how too. However I am not sure who did it , it shows the area to cut away so thre axle tube will fit once clocked. If you decide the sticker route lemme know I have extras and will mail some to ya.

can you redrill the case I have a bridgeport mill and can do anything but I wanted to make sure re-drilling was what had to be done. How much should they be clocked 20*?

First you need to do some searching...some very strong threads to answer all your questions.

I made the sticker templates, they work, but as mentioned they aren't for a lazy impatient person...it is precise work.

I would not drill the case...its thin cast aluminum. Drilling and grinding the thicker tubes is much safer.

Jeepindoug's tool is the best method, I have one. He offers them in differing degrees (or used to). My template was 22.5*. Between 20 and 25 should be plenty.
