"tightened fully:


Roland - I fitted the rubber mounts not very long ago. Although some effort was
required to compress the rubbers, I found that it was relatively easy to feel
when the MT02 cup washers came into contact with both ends of the MT03 spacers
- there was a distinctly more solid resistance to further tightening.
