Spacers

[Cees]

Hi all,

When I pulled out the frame from the hull I found 4 spacers between the hull and the frame (front spring brackets) 2 have a differend size see picture's




I think they are no: 5336 A small and B large ??? They look not the same as in the partslist.

Yes, I have some, they used them to fill the empty space between the hull and the frame. You are true, there were 2 models, same size but different wide.

Cees, Eric,

Can you provide me the measurements and thickness? I don't haven these spacers.

Thanks.

Everyone,

I also had these spacers and it is my opinion that they were used if needed but not necessarily required. If I recall correctly, I found mine on the drivers side on the front axle rear spring bracket between the hull and the frame on the inside. I think there may have been one other place but I do not recall.

I envision that when I eventually get my hull and frame back together that I may need several at strategic points as I am sure the hull will not be back in its exact original shape.

When I get there I will let everyone know.

I agree with Donovan.
Cees told me that he had found those spacers and
I was curious to other reactions.
My chassis was never taken out and I didn't find any spacer!
So I'll guess these were only added when the space between hull & frame was to big for proper adjustment.

As you see in the parts list they only used for the front spring brackets.
The ticknes is about 1 mm for the small one and about 2 mm for the larger one.
