The tabs that go under the spigot bolts to attach the springs to.
anyone know where to get these in the US .
norbo on the RDLCCRAZY site has them but would be quicker for me if i can locate some stateside.

I've seen everything from wire to washers welded on - didn't know there was an actual "thing"...

there is not much to them for sure .
i like the tabs because it spreads the load more evenly the further apart the mounts are.
if i cant find some i guess i will make them out of some thin sheet.
just too lazy unless pushed to do it. :oops:
thanks all.mark

You want sheetmetal tabs ( wirges style ) or bent wire ( Denco style ) ?

I had a piece of sheetmetal bent up for the wirges style but it seems everybody wanted the Denco style instead.
