8D rear hub help needed.

[Ian Biddle]

I have just completed an 8XE (61ci with clutch) and am now part way through an 8D; the earlier 12 (50ci without clutch). When the rear hub sits in the frame there is a 1" gap where the clutch would go on clutch models. Can anyone please tell me what fills this space when no clutch is fitted? I have been told there is a spacer (AF6) and also that the frame should be narrower as per the 7D. If the spacer is used I cannot see how the brake anchor arm would fit. Does anyone have a photo of an 8D showing the rear hub.

Thanks in advance. Ian
