Can anyone confirm the rear spacing? I measure mine and i get 132mm?......so im right in between 130 and 135. I figure i could fit either size.
There is no screw, and there is no reason to use one because the nub on the backside of the guide goes into the hole in your bb, and your cables hold everything in place. Crazy that you have a badge with 3408- can you post some pics? I have an 89 with the same birthdate. Thats pretty cool.
I wouldn't get too hung up on the spacing- I run a modern 135mm spaced MTB hub with a 9 speed cassette. works perfectly.
