Nil, it`s a slide fit. Maybe a push fit if you`ve painted the faces.What is the normal clearance between cylinder head bracket and upper frame member lug's that fit over this for attachment. Is there a maximum clearance, and is fitting a shim a good idea.
I take it it`s the front bracket, with a series B headstock ?Trev, Mine has 5-6thou clearance! how to repair or make good?
The size of the head bracket is 2 3/4" So you can check that.Yes it is series B type front attachment on a Comet.
