Admitably it's been a while since I did one of these so maybe someone else can confirm where it goes.

Not got as far as the upper hangar bolt yet but visually it looks good.
Oddjob:
I seem to recall you saying the upper bracket looked like it needed a 10mm washer fitting between the crankcase and the hanger bracket. That would explain why in that case.
Not disputing what it says in the parts book Ted, just saying IMO it's wrong and should go on the other side. I can certainly recall it fitting where I said it fits, yours just looks wrong IMO. Does the clutch casing foul it?
Does the crankcase on the other side sit completely flush against that flange or has it got a gap on one side?

Is this the spacer you are referring to Ted on the footpeg hanger bolt?

Trigger:
It has always been on the right side as per parts book :o
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
I hate to referee between you & Ken but yes it's as per Julie's photo on the right - no way it would fit on the left without an angle grinder.
