Where do you put the washer ?

Hello All,

 

Quick piece of advice needed. I am about to reinstall the rear A frame. I know that I must put a large washer next to the bush (in case the bush fails), but what about next to the chassis ? Should I put a washer here as well ? Is it good practice to put a washer next to the head of a bolt ?

 

Thanks

Use washers to space the A-frame out so that not lateral force is applied to the bushes when you tighten the bolts. Use another one on the inside between the bush and the bolt. I need two washers on either side between a-frame and chassis to space mine out evenly.

 

These should be the big washers that Caterham supply.
