Slide the wheel collars towards the outside of the wire and using a Jeweler's File, file a flat spot in the middle -- wide enough for both wheel collars. It is difficult to see clearly in the pictures, but if you look closely, you'll notice that the file is angled to file the flat spot slightly forward (about 20 - 25 degrees).



The set screws were replaced with the 1" 4-40 socket head bolts and EZ Adjust Control horns that were pictured in the previous post, and tightened after installing the 2 MM swivel ball link in-between.
