[Mgs] follow up on mga 1622 suspension issues

[Clayton Kirkwood]

Yep. From what I've learned here, one of the big differences between a 1600
and 1622 MkI and MkII v. the deluxe and twin cam, is the brakes. Up front,
the deluxe and twin cam have the Dunlop braking which do require the shims.
It isn't shown in the picture you quoted, but below in the listing, there
are shims listed for the deluxe and twin cam.

Argh!  Here's the intended page:

I looked more carefully.  There is a different spacer, outer bearing & the
shims for the Mk II DeLuxe & Twin Cam.

Trying to find the right MGA is a PITA.  It looks like the Mk.II DeLuxe had
a 1622cc engine but it's still located as a MGA 1600 in most of the manuals.
I wish Barney would check in.

Um, Charley, that's a nice picture of a plane, but I don't think it has the
shims you speak of:<)))
