Spacer problem
« on: June 06, 2007, 02:54:10 PM »
alright, so after 10 minutes of fairly intensive jumping my right spacer falls out now, but the left one is fine. i keep slotting it back in then after more jumping it falls back out again. Anyone else have this problem or a fix for it? kinda annoying having to get down to pick up the spacer slot it back in then try and get back up every 15-20 minutes. kinda scared to try and superglue it in place in case i screw up and don't manage to get it back into its slot or if the superglue would have an adverse effect on the spring or something.

any feedback i'd be very grateful

You have to replace them every couple of months but it's easy just make a batch to start with

Just a quickie........

I think i have Mk2's, and the whole spring is covered in rubber - no white T's visible at all. Should i have them, or does the rubber sleeve replace them or what? ???

Anybody any ideas?

My mate white bits are falling out all over the shop - thank god for gaffa tape!

shove a peace of plastic to fill the gap the black cilinder think is not hitting the spacer thus making it fall out and it means you dont burn away at the spacer just the plastic you used.
