Right, thanks for pointing that out, so no good for 100:1 VP on a swerve drive. We tried reading a shoulder bolt sticking out of the tapped hole but the tolerance on on that hole is non existent and it wobbled all over the place. Guess we are going to have to press a pin in and turn it to round after its in the shaft.
