Terry,
I shall soon have my clutch apart as I'm taking the opportunity to have a
look at it whilst the gearbox is out in the PB (I'm in the process of
fitting an overdrive to the PB).Will let you have some clutch details -
hopefully by the weekend.
I have recently done a batch (100) of J type clutch springs (also suit D and
F) and am selling these for #18 a set (just compare that with the dealers'
prices!). I'll also be doing a batch of 200 for the P type (also suit
N).Price not yet determined but will be keen. The springs are made by an old
established firm of spring makers in the West Midlands and the quality is
excellent. I have also done brake shoe pull off springs for 8" and 12"
brakes and been complemented on the quality.
