[QUOTE="Hugo Myatt, post: 31093, member: 99"] Bob, Yes 6 pivots. 3 each side. The long stay utilises the seat nose pivot at the front. The other end pivots to the front of the carrier. The short stay pivots from the rear of the carrier at the top and pivots again at its lower end where it clamps onto the mudguard/lifting handle stay. I doubt that your 1/4" bushes were supplied threaded. They were probably tight on the threaded bolt and cut their own thread as they were fitted on. Also as they are tightened up material was probably squashed into the the threads of the bolt. My carrier is currently fitted to my Comet but if you care to PM me your email address I shall take my trusty ruler into the garage and get more accurate info to send you. Hugo [/QUOTE]
