Gashead:
Don't file anything !

As delray say's - you got it right the first time, inside of the spider!

If I am reading it right the bolts are too long when fitted like above picture as it should be

Had a slight problem fitting the sugino 44 to my 400's. I've got nos sugino chainring bolts and they tighten and hold the ring only if I put it on the outside of the spider? If I put the ring frame side of the spider which is where I think it should go then the bolts are too long and when tight still allow the chain ring to wobble about!

yeah that's correct! Can't fit like the pix as female part is too long so had to put the chainring on the outside of the spider!

File or not to file?
Will take some pics and post up later tonight.

58 delray:
the way the sugino spyder is made means that it can be fitted front (outside) or rear (frame side)
in the redline advert above ^^^^^ it is shown on the rear.
bitd we fitted them front or rear depending on two things,
A) chain alignment
B) the recesses for the bolts

if you want to fit it on the rear you can do one of three things,
A) get shorter bolts
B) reverse the chainwheel (spin it round)
C) file the female part of the bolt down
personaly iwould fit it on the outside as it looks better anyway (imo)

moochalargo:
Think it's time to file defo got to go inside the spider
