A frame connection to De Dion Tube


WD

Recommended Posts

I am trying to attach the A frame to the DD Tube but the holes in the A frame collars are 1/2" and the o.d of the sleeve in the 'everymans' bush is 5/8". The nylon washers which are very thin seem to have no effect as there is a gap of about 4mm between the end face of the tube and the nylon washer.

Should the bush go through the A frame tube ends not butting up to it as it is at present. There are no 5/8" washers that I can find to pack out the gap or is any mention made of this in the instructions. I am beginning to wonder if the holes drilled in the end of the A frame tubes could be the wrong size (1/2" instead of 5/8").

Any clarifiaction welcome.

Fred - I have the diagram. Do you know what thickness the nylon race washers which go over the bushes are? The ones which I have are only 1mm thick which is way too small to have any effect.
