Rossopuro torque arm

[dark_bike]

Maybe this is a stupid question, but here goes:

I bought a used rossopuro torque arm/ reaction rod/ thingy on ebay. so far so good, as new condition.

Looking at it more closely I saw that those ball swivels are a lot narrower than the original rod. Shouldn't there be any rubber bushes/disks or whatever to prevent it from sliding about or is it meant to be this way?

There should be four aluminium bushes in the package. No rubber thingies

Thanks Jaap. There weren't any so I guess I'll have to make or find some.

Lateral clearnce? How much? Can you buy machinery spacers/ shims or washers to adjust clearance?
