Title: B31 Cush Drive Spacer
Post by: Luckydug23 on 29 Mar, 2023, 23:04
Hi all
Trying to find a cush drive spacer and shim for my 55 B31. Anyone have any hot leads on where I could acquire one. Have tried the usual suspects, Dragonfly, Burtons etc, without any luck. Failing that does someone know the specifications / dimensions so I could have one turned up locally? Mine is so worn its very difficult to tell what the original thickness was.
All help greatly appreciated.
Regards Dug
B31, C15 Sportsman

Morning Luckydug23, What a coincidence, I'm currently on the trail of one of these! Assuming it's the same part, mine is part number 65-2528. If yours is the same part number, I might know shortly where we can source these. Let me know if yours is the same part number and I'll come back to you.

Hello again, just received confirmation that if your part is the same as mine (65-2528) they're available from George Prew for £10.00 including postage, telephone 01763 848763. I've just ordered mine. Good luck.

Distance piece (for sizes), width varies (different part numbers) to ensure chain lines up:
