Thanks for the bike.shimano.com link, though it doesn't seem to be accessable.
I have a 120mm steel frame, I'm comfortable cold-setting it. Even if I had to change the spacing to 132.5mm or whatever the OLD of the hub is, it's only 6.25mm on each side. I'd rather just play around with washers and locknuts if I could find a reliable method.
You are right about the Shimano link. I originally reached the document from the Nexus 8 speed web page on the Shimano site. The hub info page includes links to two downloadable documents. One is the installation sheet and the other the parts list with exploded diagram. Seeif this link to the hub page works.
