[Healeys] Luggage Rack Not Fitting

[Maurice Maxwell]

Mark,

I had the same problem.  Sent the rack back to moss after talking to them over 
the phone.  They were very helpful with my attempts to solve the problem.

Then I ordered one from Victoria British and it fit.  

It seems as though some of the suppliers use different measurements for the 
distance between the attachment points on the rack.

Subject: [Healeys] Luggage Rack Not Fitting

Got a new Moss luggage rack that appears to be a wrong fit.   I got my old
hinge pins out and replaced them with the
optional rack pins.    These pins have a nut, a threaded area and the acorn
nut.   My question is where exactly do the rack
tabs go in conjunction with the pin/ thread set up.   The holes in the rack
tabs are big enough to go over the threaded area but
the tabs are not welded far enough apart to get them over both the left and
the right threaded areas.  The rack tabs fit exactly next
to the hinges with no extra play what so ever so I can slide the pins through
the tab holes but there is no way that I can get the
tabs over the threaded area.

Can someone tell me the sequence in which the luggage tabs should go on the
pins.   Or a couple of pictures would be great.

Mark
