[QUOTE="Nigel Spaxman, post: 121395, member: 2907"] It is nice to see how other people fix things. Mine was wrecked there the thread stripped, I guess it is typical. so I tapped it out one size bigger, bushed the hole back to standard, and made a special spindle. That put the thread really close to one of the through bolt holes. It was so close I filed the head of the through bolt so that it had a prong that fitted into the notch in the new spindle to prevent it from coming unscrewed again. Looking at the picture of yours I can't understand why there doesn't seem to be a through bolt hole anywhere near the front rocker spindle hole. I have an early B, did they change the location of some of the bolt holes? [/QUOTE]
