Sounds like someone used 4-speed spacers with this ELdo. More wierdness.

Forgot to mention, if you need "official" measurements, I can take the
bolt out tonight and let you know what they are. Just let me know.

Ah ha! I originally thought you were referring to the alignment
spacers
that fit in the bellhousing so that the alignment of the
engine-transmission is not completely depending on the studs.

But now, I see that you are referring the aluminum spacers that fit on
either side of the transmission, through which the large transmission
mounting bolt is slid.

I just measured these on my Ambo with a 4 speed...still mounted, so
they

are close, but not *perfect* measurements:

Right side = 42 mm
Left side = 57 mm

I don't know what they should be for an Eldo with a 5 speed, but I
thought I'd toss these numbers out, anyway. Perhaps something got
switched at some point in the bike's life???

there is anything wrong with the trans spacer being longer on one
side
than the other...perhaps it just worked out of the aluminum case?

I figure the frame must be bent or something. Complicatd greatly my
efforts to get the swingarm aligned with the tranny output.
