With lots of fun I now have a spring out and it measures 15" so on spec, and it also stands straight, another bonus.
There is no rubber or? spacer material left of any consequence. The bits left I scraped and torched out.
Now for the help / advice.
With the spring held in place and holding it straight 1/2 the coil shows under the upper retaining lip. I realize the center sleeve keeps it in place, but any spacer I put in on top will have a full coil or more showing at the frt...side facing the brakes.
Is this assumption correct?
If it is...how much coil is showing at the frt.? This will give me a thickness to work on and then make up a tapered spacer to allow for the back.....assuming this is not available from Bristol.
I also realize there is some sort of rubber spacer at the bottom...if I work on 1/2" for that one, does it sound right?
Any thoughts on shocks?

Thanks,
Anne
