BSA Spacer (·080—·081"; 2·032—2·0574 mm.)

A selective-fit gearbox spacer, .080-.081 in. thick, used in the gear cluster to set shaft clearance.

PN · 40-3120

This is a spacer that shows up in the gearbox cluster figures, used to set clearance somewhere in the gear cluster stack. The catalog lists it at .080-.081 inch thick, which converts to the metric figure shown alongside it, and that tight range is the whole point of the part - it is a selective-fit shim rather than a one-size piece.

Parts like this get chosen from a range of thicknesses to take up end float in the gear cluster once everything else is assembled, so don't assume the number stamped on the old one is automatically what you need on rebuild - it depends on the actual stack you're working with.

Our catalog record ties this to gearbox work in the 1969-1970 span but doesn't spell out a specific model. Bring your gear cluster in or check your parts book before ordering so we can confirm you're getting the right thickness.
