Heusinkveld baseplate bolts

Chabalo169 · Jul 8, 2022

Hi guys,

got my baseplate built, all good apart from the fact that the baseplate moves a little bit within its bolts which i wanted to fix. Saw on sim racings garage that using washers would fix it but now i got an issue ... I cant seem to take the below bolts off, even using an allen key as it just rotates the levels i have below, only for one of them it did work ...

I am quite terrible with DIY but cant figure out a way to make this work , help much appreciated thanks !

Try to hold the "levels" with a wrench (could be a fitting one in the HSV tool set) or with a pair of pliers.

And if I remember correctly the washer solution is also recommended by Heusinkfelt.

I second what was said just above. Hold with a wrench and install washers.
Fixed the issue for me but be patient and have a steady hand as the washers want to slide off from the position between stud and bottom surface of the plate.
