[QUOTE="stumpy lord, post: 19008, member: 207"] hi John, I meant to answer this days ago but foregot, sorry, but here goes. As you know the correct series d lock plate has two lugs on it , one long and one short, the long one is the one that should be bent over to go through the slot in the D thrust plate, and then pick upon on one of the splines of the splined sleave. How ever it is easy,due to the friction of the nut when tightening up the shock absorber to over come the locking tab and pull the preasure plate arround with the nut. what I do to try and prevent that happening, is to grease both sides of the preasure plate, it allso helps to prevent all the spring cockling over . You could always cheat and use locktight 221 screw lock, nothing stronger, or you might have trouble the next time you need to strip it all down. cheers norm [/QUOTE]
