Hi Jago I've checked the sizes: they need to be 20mm OD, 5mm thick to take an M8 bolt though the centre so I was a bit off there!! I've sent you a private message with my address and I'll feel better if you do the same as I insist on buying you a drink for sorting me out Mark
jago Posted December 21, 2008 Report Posted December 21, 2008 I'll make the new spacers for you tomorrow and put them in the post but i really don't want anything for them it is xmas after all ! Jobs like this are easy for me , but i can appreciate how it might be difficult for someone like yoursef who's not in the trade to source none standard parts like these .Just glad to help !
