Mark Webber collectable memorabilia stamps.
So, what do you do while watching a rerun of the Valencia GP?
Well sit down on the couch with a BMW eccentric bolt and do some drawing.
This is what i came up with:

Top right is the eccentric bolt looking down the shaft and you can see the inner circle which is the bolt shaft itself and is offset by 4mm from the center of the eccentric washer. This will give us a total adjustability of 8mm.
Top left is the plate im going to make up for the bolt. Its measured out to 26mm wide because i was being lazy and didnt want to use the half grade measure with an 0.7 lead, and it would have distracted from my TV watching. In reality it will be somewhere between 24 and 26mm due to the sheer innaccuracy of the angle grinder. In that diagram you can see the slot which will have to be drilled out of the center. Probably a pair of 12.2mm holes and then some filing to complete.
Bottom is the side on view of the bracket, which ill construct out of 3mm plate (as i have it around) and the tabs will protrude 5mm from the plate, for a total width of 8mm. Will need to cut blanks of 25x50mm. All neat and tidy.
Now just to do it.
Also, quite remarkably i got a note today from DHL saying that my shocks had arrived from the US. Im getting them redelivered to work tomorrow.
