I've received the following info in an email from Stefan, which he has asked me to post here:Stefan wrote:My Dexta is still fitted with her original spacer. I installed the front axle and installed the radius rods and then checked the gap. I fitted a few washers to have a bit free-play for the axle. The free-play is about 1 milimeters.

Hi Ben,
I checked the spacer today and it's 23 mm long.
Maybe the measurement can vary a bit from tractor to tractor.
If I had no spacer I would first install the front axle and the radius rods and then
check the gap between the bracket and the axle. The spacer should give a bit free-play, about
half a milimeter.
Regards Stefan
What a wonderful guy - we can't thank him enough!
All the best,
