An aircraft landing gear assembly comprising: a first member having an inner face, an outer face and a first hole providing communication between the inner face and outer face; a second member having an inner face, an outer face and a second hole providing communication between the inner face and outer face, the second member being disposed in parallel with the first member with the inner faces of each member facing one another; a bolt provided through the first and second holes to couple the first member to the second member, the bolt being longer than the combined thicknesses of the first and second members so as to have protruding first and second end portions; a first mechanical fixing mounted on the first end portion of the bolt and having an inner axial face arranged to apply a clamping force to the flat outer face of the first member; a second mechanical fixing mounted on the second end portion of the bolt and having an inner axial face arranged to apply a clamping force to the flat outer face of the second member; wherein the first member is arranged in use to be loaded in a first direction and the second member is anchored to react the load in a second direction, thereby causing deflection of the bolt such that a radially outer region of each fixing is biased to move towards the flat outer face of the respective member, and wherein the assembly includes one or more spacers, each spacer defining one or more land regions (54, 55) arranged to limit how close a fixing can be positioned relative to the outer face of a respective member and being provided between the inner axial face of one of the fixings and the flat outer face of the respective member such that the land regions separate the fixing from the member, characterised by each spacer defining one or more voids positioned such that angular movement of the fixing due to deflection of the bolt causes the radially outermost point on the fixing sidewall to move into one of the voids, wherein the voids are positioned in line with the load applied to the first member in use such that the load applied to the first member is reacted primarily by the bolt and the members, rather than by the fixings. a first member having an inner face, an outer face and a first hole providing communication between the inner face and outer face; a second member having an inner face, an outer face and a second hole providing communication between the inner face and outer face, the second member being disposed in parallel with the first member with the inner faces of each member facing one another; a bolt provided through the first and second holes to couple the first member to the second member, the bolt being longer than the combined thicknesses of the first and second members so as to have protruding first and second end portions; a first mechanical fixing mounted on the first end portion of the bolt and having an inner axial face arranged to apply a clamping force to the flat outer face of the first member; a second mechanical fixing mounted on the second end portion of the bolt and having an inner axial face arranged to apply a clamping force to the flat outer face of the second member; wherein the first member is arranged in use to be loaded in a first direction and the second member is anchored to react the load in a second direction, thereby causing deflection of the bolt such that a radially outer region of each fixing is biased to move towards the flat outer face of the respective member, and wherein the assembly includes one or more spacers, each spacer defining one or more land regions (54, 55) arranged to limit how close a fixing can be positioned relative to the outer face of a respective member and being provided between the inner axial face of one of the fixings and the flat outer face of the respective member such that the land regions separate the fixing from the member,
