Just noticed Orcadian's measurement parameters.I can relax-my studs haven't stretched by 22mm!!Nurse Julie-what's this technique with double-nutting?Sounds very useful.Especially the part about saving me having to take the barrel off.
yes, parts list indicates 122mm but that is the overall length, not the distance above the case when fitted. Not sure if you can wind them out with the barrels on but worth a careful try. Your studs are already the right way up so initial length must be suspect.If you back it out a few threads don’t tell Trig. I would investigate further before bodging is even contemplated.Just a thought - there isn’t another thick washer stuck to the head is there?
