CJJ was there any reason why one set of the holes in the spacer block were counter sunk, because looking at your pictures I dont see any reason why ordinary bolts cant be used

Hmmm Interesting too the fact that the spigot ring isn't really needed

I think the countersunks were to give clearance between them and the hub.

Once the new carrier is fitted you cannot remove the screws as they are slightly under the hub securing points.

Thanks for that, see what I mean from that pic you could fit a normal bolt behind the carrier

On mine the 2 bulges where the screwholes are for the carrier encroach on where you bolts would be.



Did you get SEF to knock up the brackets by the way? I used to work in there as the Training Manager.
