Rear axle washer/spacer.............
It's taken ages to sort out the discs on the 500 and I've made the rookie mistake of not recording image sof where the 2 washers you can see on the axle go and now I've forgotten
It would be really handy if anyone could tell me and sa ve me a heap of experimenting!
Thank you

The parts list will tell you the sizes usually and any bearing stockists should have them. All common sizes.
