#1 Brass shim washers

Post by peters3103 » Mon Jun 22, 2020 10:29 pm

Hi, short of making them, has anyone found a supplier of the brass shim washers for the bonnet balance links? I’ve tried several fastener suppliers to no avail.

Thanks. As mine were mostly missing how many are there in total -16? (apart from the 4 where the link assembly attaches to the frame). Is there 4 per spring?
