Norton 16H - Spindle query

Agggh !
Whoever reassembled my 1945 16H hadn't a clue and I'm left picking up the pieces !

When I dismantled the bike I photographed every stage and now that I am reassembling it I'm pretty sure that a number of pieces are missing from the front and rear spindle units:

There appears to be an absence of a felt washer and a couple of steel washers on each spindle, am I correct?
And, if I am correct in this assumption, does anyone know where I can source these?

Can anyone provide me with an exploded diagram or some photos of how they should be assembled?
I've looked at all the data I have but unfortunately I don't seem to have the correct information available for my machine.

TIA (as always)

Hi Kostas...I think Ian is talking about the wheels when he says 'front and rear spindle units'...at least that's how I read it...Ian (the other one)..

If you go here:

https://www.dropbox.com/l/9lTghyx5S0UGMzgwpIumSe?

You'll get to my Dropbox pages with a high quality scan of the manual, the next best thing to the Original! (or even better, as the pages have been cleaned up a bit, and in some way altered, so I'll know when someone tries to sell them, the info is as per original ofcourse)

Cheers,

Lex
