Bit of a problem with my front wheelbearings. I'm using the Audi/VW larger bearing, Cav hub and machined Nova knuckle.
I had the knuckles (hub carriers) machined out based on the QH/FAG bearings I provided the machinist. One has had some play in since fitting, potentially caused by a loose hubnut.
I've gone to fit a new bearing (not QH/FAG) and found I can slide it in and out with my fingers! Measurements show it's maybe 0.05mm or so smaller outer diameter than the original bearing. QH/FAG bearing feels quite a nice snug fit.
Suggestions?! I surely can't keep buying bearings until one feels like it's a nice interference fit?
