The Joss Campbell Special

[Ian Williams]

You are correct Russell the top one need not have a grease nipple, but I made all the replacement shackle pins the same before deciding to make the locking plate, so I screwed a nipple in to blank the end. ( We were previously going to locate the axle with the damper but I decided against for the reasons already stated ) The other side has a standard shackle with nipple to lubricate the spring bush, i guess I could have made a plain pin but they were done I couldn't be bothered to turn up another. I am not huge a fan of the rubber block solution as it still allows a far amount of movement especially after having covered a few miles, however I agree at 30 to 40 MPH entirely adequate.
