I bought a one inch CAT sway bar a couple months back and recently new brackets made by M. Michels-( nice job Mike) today when the new brackets arrived I tried one for fit and found the bushings had deterioated- maybe from storage in a hot attic- none the less they are very brittle and the one I tried cracked and broke with me just sliding the bracket on. I know CAT sold the bushings at one time but now the newsletter no longer has a parts available list- SO, if anyone has a set, knows if CAT might still sell them or has any idea where I might purchase new ones I would deeply appreciate the information.

Try www.jegs.com .  They have hard race type bushings of all sizes.

THANKS Gary, I will check to see if I can find them on line at jegs and if not
it seems, if I remember correctly, you can call and they try their best to
help. I used to get their catalouge but never purchased anything and in time
they stopped sending a new one.
Thanks again.

Subject: [Alpines] S-V Wiper transmission chrome nuts question
Message-ID: <197b9.c04b70c.3ba63872@aol.com>

My apparently original wiper mount studs (the part of the transmission  
that comes up through the cowl) have one galled side.  I procured a  
replacement transmission / motor that appears for all the world to be  identical, but 
the thread size differs from the existing, and from the new  replacement 
nuts from Rick.
 
The replacement threads appear to be 5/8 x 24.  Are there early / late  
versions?  Could this be a non-Alpine part?
 
Thanks
 
Walt

Anyone have a bumper for a 1967 Alpine V?
