You wont need the wishbones... SP will be fine...

SP wishbones (UM521) same length but with 2 holes for securing the shock bottom.

SP2 wishbones (UM521-1) same length as above but only 1 fixing hole for shock bottom.

UMW516-1 are the 1 deg ally hubs

UMW514 Rear Front WIDE hingepin holder
UMW515 Rear Rear WIDE hingepin holder

UM524 Extended Main Shaft (Layshaft)

HTH

Thanks njc11,iv looked on je spares and they only have 515 but not 514,does it come under another number as it seems odd that it would say 515 wide rear hinge pin holder but then not have the other part,
thanks
Mark

Hi,thinking of doing the same conversion but i have an sp with the long top shaft and motor spacer,do i really need the alloy hinge pin holders as mentioned to complete the convesion as they seem rarer than rocking horse poo?

the sp2 comes with the wide plastic/carbon ones in the kit,i dont know what the sp comes fitted with,if they are the narrow ones you will need to to shave eather some off the arms on the inside as they will rub on the chassis so much the arms dont move up ur down,you could shave some off the chassis to get the same effect,the other thing iv noticed with the kit ones(wide)is they arnt very strong and bow quite easy,iv broken the rear front one,admittedly from hitting the climbing frame in the garden......so you dont realy need them but i would and will br getting them,jespares have the rear rear but i cant find the front rear,
hope this helps

SP came with the wide hangers too ... would just need the layshaft I beleive.

As for the hinge pin holders nobody seems to have told JE Spares they are hard to get, a quick phone call and postie showed up with some!
