The new chainwheel arrived and I checked the overall length. I measured mine on a granite surface and the old one is 1.475" and the new is 1.440"!
I stuck the shoe carrier through the old chainwheel and it is flush on the back side. I thought that I had a C19 shim on the nut’s flange, but it isn’t there now. I’ll look through the pile of nuts and bolts from stripping the primary to see if it is there.
Also, looking at my copy of Clutch drawing MO28/2. I am thinking that appropriate C19 shims between the C2 spacer and the flange of the rear chainwheel bushing would fix me up, unless the backside of the drum rubs on the inner primary cover. It would be kept centered by the end of the clutch nut sticking through the shoe carrier or would the chamfer on the nut end spoil that? The bore of the front chainwheel bushing is a bit tight, but that is easier to solve.
Any suggestions on the shim idea?
