"Were the discs on a Big Seven prevented from moving?"
I wish you has asked this last week, I got rid of some Big 7 bits then.
I don't remember any retaining system for the brass discs, I am 95% sure the brass discs were unblemished circles inside and out.
There is no indication of a locating "pip" in the Big Seven parts lists.
The question still stands - why the discs? How can a friction surface work if lined with brass that can move?
Presumably they were introduced to modify the performance of the shock absorbers.
