Housing for tapered bearings

I read on the durablue site that when you install the posi lock nut you should leave an endplay towards the axle housing/carrier. They recommend between 0.015"-0.017" depended on manufacturer.

Does anybody have any experienses regarding this? I've got the Roll design swingarm with an unidentified aluminium bearing housing.

I have an RAD brand tapered bearing carrier.... the easiest way to answer your question is to just use your own judgement. Put the quad's rear end up on a set of jackstands and position the locknut so there is no axle wiggle'in and the axle spins free. Durablues recommened .015 to .017 sounds about right, its not much.
