Re: Press Fit

This year we had our chassis water-Jet. There was no problem press fitting into it when i made the hole the exact size. NOTE: we also had it painted so that may have affected it). But when we got our off-season Chassis laser cut it was also press fitted and stayed perfectly (wasn't Painted). you shouldn't have a problem with 0.09", as long as you have a support all around the outside of the sheet-mteal and bearing, so that the metal doesn't bend. we had that happen, but we just hammers it back in place :/
