Default 12L4

Granted the 12L4 has won and seems to be the platform to build from, but what is the best method to get the pod/axle/ride height adjusters freed up.

Explaining further, how are you guys reworking the oval ride height adjusters to slip fit into the pod and getting the bearings looser in the ride height adjuster. There has to be an easier way to get the axle to unbind and slip in with no force.

Curious also about the availability of pod side plates that don't use ride height adjusters but are bored to directly accept the bearings (similar to an old Delta car).

While I'm asking, I've seen photos of a couple of 12l's that no longer run a forward pivot ball on the T plate. It's been replaced by an anodized ???????, any ideas. The easiest photo to see it in is the Lufaso web page mentioned here a few days ago.

Thanks
