Hi All,
Following the splitting of body & chassis and repair/paint of the chassis I have finally started the re-assmebly of my TVR Griffith chassis and all is going well, until now ...............
I've got to the top pivot point on the rear suspension where the top wishbone joins onto the upright. There appears to be too much of a gap. I don't seem to have any shims and photos pre-disassembly seem to show a gap too. Am I missing something?? Any help would obviously be much appreciated

Thanks - Looks much more like what I'd be expecting. Maybe my wishbones have become distorted, I can't see how though. They don't show any signs of this

Many many thanks for all the responses - thick washers it is then!
Inner bolt is sacrificial ........... waiting for the correct length to arrive and punch through from the correct direction, but I have to say well spotted!
Onwards with the re-assembly ...........
