I'm having the hardest fucking time putting on a new gripper I got on my rear axel of my threshold v1. The spacers are the biggest pain in the ass. Over 30 minutes of trying many techniques and I can't get both in. Can I get some help please haha?

I have the same problem with my phoenix wheels. I put on spacer in then the wheel, then used a flathead and hammered it in. It wont damage it jusst use a thin flathead

Man I tried using a flathead and still won't work. Why can't all decks nowadays have integrated spacers?? Seriously need some more suggestions guys.

Put a small allen key in the hole closest to the spacer so when the spacer is barely ligned up, put the allen key through the droppout hole and into the wheel then push the normal axel through

Issac I do have it on its side but the problem isn't that they move around its that once one spacer is in then I put the wheel in place I can't manage to fit the 2nd spacer in place. The gap left from the dropout to the spacer is mininal to none and I can't budge it in. I tried to hammer it in with a flathead and it would barely go in. My bearings are all the way in the slots so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. -_- I'm getting freaking pissed haha

It's the one it came with when I bought the complete. I sorta thought the same thing but its barely even that wide.

Sorry man. Im just thinking the bearing might just be a little bit out. Just take a hammer and tap the bearings in a little bit
