Can any reader tell me any or all of the following, please? I can measure the C Girdraulic setup and may add them just for comparison but really need the comparative dimensions for pre and post war Bramptons. This is to try to work out which bits I've got and what it is safe to mix and match.
Is the head clip FF1 universal between all post war machines?
Is there a different equavalent to FF1 for prewar forks?
Are spindles the same lengths and diameter?
Dimensions required to compile chart. Answers 6 & 7 will vary but hopefully all others will be definitive.
1 A or B, Upper pivot centre to lower pivot centre when steering head is fitted to frame
2 A or B, Upper link pivot centre to lower link pivot centre on fork leg
3 A or B, lower link pivot centre to wheel centre on fork leg
4 A or B, Top link length
5 A or B, Bottom link length
6 A or B, Typical length from wheel centre to lower rear pivot
7 A or B, Typical length from lower fork spindle to top rear pivot
