For those who are not planing on putting bearings in these the hole in the tabs are big enough that even with them being out of a true 90 it shouldn't matter much other then a little uneven wear on the heads of your screws and or possibly being a little tight until they wear in
Thanks for the clarification Tre.

Recieved my first set over the weekend. They look great. Looks like i'll have to put them in a vise as well, but no biggy. I should have my 2nd set soon.

For guys running the Jones Cs, what are you using for kingpins? I'm running stock plastic kingpins and have a lot of slop. I had to use brass bushings for spacers but need to find a better solution.



Thanks Jones for making them, one less thing to worry about breaking!!

For mine I used 3mm allen head screw with the cap head. This is the big bulky one that has a square side profile. Most are a little bit larger than the hole. To fisx this I chucked the screw in my drill press and sanded it down a little with a file. If you don't have a press you can use a drill all the same, as long as it spins.
