So the e46 aluminum flex discs didnt work out so well... killer vibration which must be due to the spacer/reducer bushings having an OD of 2mm less than the stock M-B ones. So I installed the new shaft with some extra stocker discs I had lying around. I tried to machine some spacers on my lathe, but my skills arent up to par yet... so Im looking for 18mm OD bushings with 12mm bore about 35mm long.
Anyone have any ideas? I am also going to call revshift (already emailed them) on Monday to see if they can make me a set.
I'd also ike to shave about 1/8" from both faces of the disc to bring them closer to stock size.

W123 Mods: 4 speed ** manual climate control ** '85 Kalitucky intake ** manual windows & full tint ** Euro headlights retrofit w/bixenon projectors ** 4 brake light mod ** Vogtland 50mm drop front & Lesjofors S600 drop rear springs ** 16" rims ** late w126 brake spindles, rotors & calipers ** full suspension rehab ** Bilstein HDs ** AL129X alternator & 1/0 starter and charging cables ** 300GD clutch/flywheel ** AFCO 80103N radiator & Earl's 41610 oil cooler ** custom block-off plate, remote oil filter & t-stat ** MW IP w/ tomnik's 6.5mm 'Holly' elements **

S124 Mods: 400E Rear subframe ** SL600 Brakes ** Late 300E 210mm diff ** SLK230 6 speed ** 17" CLK rims ** Vented RF Fender ** Facelift Hood, Headlights, and Lower Cladding **
