[Healeys] Accelerator Pedal Cross Shaft

[Curt/Nancy Arndt]

Guys

I've attached some photos of an original bracket and screws from my 1955
BN1, LHD of course. The markings on the head and on the nut denote that they
are UNF (10/32) versus either 2BA or 3/16 BSF.

Also pictured are some stainless steel 10/32 oval head Phillips screws along
with the properly sized SS nuts and washer.  These are basically identical
to the originals.  These are available at any good hardware outlet, also
most hardware stores have these same screws in steel with zinc plating with
the same dimensions, if you want to go that route as Kees mentioned.

Of course the stainless steel screws will work better in a wet environment,
and in this application they are not seen being under the carpeting and on
the underside of the car.  Bead bast them first and they will look close to
the originals.

Cheers,

Curt.
