It has about 1 inch of the spindle is visible now that the wheel is back on - does this sound right. The l/h side obviously has a much larger spacer that leaves it about an inch proud of the hub of the wheel

Thanks

Sounds about right to me.As I said before,I never mentioned the r/h spacer because it very rarely comes out.I think you will find if it was missing the spindle would'nt seat correctly against the wheel and the alignment would be way out.

Great - I think it's okay then

er, if you have any doubt whats so ever, why don't you take out the wheel again to check. It only takes a few minutes or so.

Peace of mind and all that!!
