Mounting considerations for lotus 138

**jerr** · 03-06-2007, 10:59 PM

I remember reading somewhere that a 3.6 x 7mm drill bit is the weapon of choice when mounting 138's. I searched but the details seem to be buried in an off-topic thread.

Any help + any other considerations.

Also any theory's on preparing the bases of dps skis? Mine seem a tad dry. I don't want to get super techy anal about it. Just done right.

Ta,

Why not email Stephan? He seems to be really helpful with this sort of stuff.

Of course, report back here too.

3.5 x 8mm is my bit of choice. are you on this years or last years? if last years, hold the screws up befre drilling to kae sure you don't need to grind the screws a small bit.

also, throw a coat or two of graphite wax then wax with temp wax as needed.

That's what I'm talking about! Cheers brother. Are last year's slightly thinner?

Arty - Good advice & done. I'll post if I get any gold.
