The problem Im having is the top part the z-truck its loose with the top left screw being loose also I added some lock tight to it and set it back in. There alot play in top part this can move it back and forth by hand. Would I have to tighten the right side hex nut to adjust it right? It came new from company lose like this and might have been reason the QC broke.
I installed the ROCK also today and it went in easy!!!!
I didnt have an issue with the lock tight on old Qc just tightened it a little and it came right off without heat.
Cant wait to try it out once I figure out the z-truck issue being loose...anyone?

In a pinch you can make one just grind a 12mm flat,I made one with my blet sander with some 60 grit.

The left side bearings are the fixed bearings. You need to remove the Z-truck to tighten that bearing. It's easy to do. The bearing keeper has a screw slot. And the z-truck needs to be removed to hold that keeper... Download the PDF.

Had thought it would be a pain but was actually easy once I got into doing it. Will be running the Rock this weekend!!!!!!

If you have trouble finding one. Check your local bicycle repair shop. Found mine there, he had a spare and sold me one, he also had the location where he orders his from. Fits perfectly on the nut behind the screw.

I just took a regular open end 12 mm wrench and grinded it down thin works perfect.
