Brad, I won't question why you would want to have a CD in a noise box like the Spitfire but I have used the FM modulator. This was a Sony 10 disc unit that worked quite well given the environment. Yo

Jari, I just viewed your URL. That vertical link is typical. Not only do they break, they also bend quite easily too. Bump a curb and they are toast. Vic Whitmore 76 Spitfire Thornhill, Ontario

Sorry back to you. You will find reference to Rear Trunnion kits in the Rimmer's catalog (and probably elsewhere). Vicky Brit lists them as Rear Axle Seal Kits. Same shit...different pile. Vic W.

Yes the trunnion lubrication is poor. There is a hole in the trunnion housing that feeds thru to the grease nipple. It is located right in the middle where the gap would be between the bushings. Not
