Just a correction here. On the early BN1, the gearbox (not including the
overdrive) the rear axle if four stud spiral bevel and the front and
rear suspension were BSF threads.
A simple way of looking at this is to consider what were Austin major
units and what were BMC. BMC units, often based on Morris, started to
take over with the later 5 stud Hypoid rear axle. Then with the BN2 the
rest of the units, except the engine, fitted BMC units with UNF
threads..
The bolts for the master cylinder are 5/16" UNF x3" with spring washers
under the heads.
I assume that you have the triangular aluminium spacer that is fitted to
the chassis first with a countersunk screw?
