I have a kona Jake 2009 and i have bought a triple shimano sora crankset with bottom bracket

It has come with a spacer but I am not sure were it goes
the shell is 68mm i believe

Do you have the tools to remove the old and install the new bottom bracket? I have no idea what spacer you have since Sora was a road group and the bottom bracket was intended for a 68 mm shell. Spacers typically come with cranks that can go on either 68 or 73 mm shell widths.

is this the sora crank with the integrated spindle? if yes then the spacer goes on the non drive side of the spindle
