Hoping to sometime come out of the “need help” realm but for now that’s where I am. My v wheels in the back are hitting my belt clips when back fully in the Y axis. Anyone run into this?
I put heavy duty V wheels on mine and I had to grind a little off the clip. It looks like you might be able to rotate the clip and eliminate the interference based on the photo

Me too…and pushed the clip away too.

Loosened it seems to roll over it now easier not sure if that was the fix or I created another issue with a loose V wheel???
You should re-tighten the V wheel — assembly is done without the benefit of being on a rail, so positioning can be less than optimal and loosening will allow a tiny bit of adjustment w/in the space allowed by the difference of the bolt versus the hole size — also tweak the position of the belt anchor as suggested and you should be good to go.

Okay, I’ll retighten and try to move the belt anchor out of the path. Thanks for the inputs all.
When I upgraded to the HDZ you have to remove the x belt and re-install. My belt clip when tightened tried to rotate and did the same thing. I loosened the belt clip bolt and held the clip with a pair of needle nose pliers as I tightened the clip. That was all it took. There is very little room between the belt and the v wheels. But just enough.

Well I retightened the v wheel and loosened the clamp whilst holding holding it with pliers retightened the clamp, tested it and you are right it’s a tight fit but it’s a fit. Thanks!!!

Which heavy duty V wheels are you using Gary?
i ended up noticing this at assembly, that the wheels touch just slightly, i pulled each one back off one at a time and filed down the edge that touches.

I got mine from Mr Beaver — @Luke would have to say where he’d sourced them from. I’d like to buy some spares in case I ever need them.
