[QUOTE="Jersey Woody, post: 2145, member: 4342"] I had the pleasure of rebuilding the lower link on my Girdraulics. The shims FF67 that the spares company sent do not fit inside the bush to take up the gap to the eccentric as the diameter of the shim "disc" was much bigger than the diameter of the hole in the bush, why? When I E mailed the spares co. they said they were made to spec. from the drawings. I had to grind them down with a drill and stone and it took me ages. Has anyone else come across this,am I doing something stupid or should we get smaller diameter shims made? Does it matter what way up the lower link is reassembled? [/QUOTE]
