Default Carrier White Disc

Does anybody have an original example of the white rear axle disc that mounts on the right side muffler. What diameter is it?

Ive got one, but I lent it out to a friend in Windsor to be copied. When I get it back, I will let you know. Unless of course someone else posts up by then.

Default Thanks Maurice!!

2/8" (or1 /4") thick? I'm surprised given that it bolts to the muffler bracket that's only 1/8" strapping.

Hi, I making this part at the moment, I have an original bracket i have borrowed but the disc is stainless steel so probably isn't original, Can anyone confirm the thickness of the disc, there appears to be some confusion in this thread.

Thanks Kevin.
