Hi Rob, have you checked the finger height with the clutch installed, maybe the pivot position is incorrect allowing the fingers to sit to low, just a thought.

Got my gaskets today. Thanks Harv

I have recently had to do this. Firstly you will have to remove the bunding by cutting the stitching then the vinyl covering will be able to be removed. Inside you will find a masonite type board that is stapled to the metal sleeve that runs the length of the rod. I found the staples to be made of quite tough metal; however, I was able to straighten and reuse them in order to refix a replacement board (old one had broken away from the sleeve). The sleeve is held in place by what I can only describe as an interference fit on the rod and should be able to be removed by rotating the rod while trying to pull it from the sleeve. Hope this helps Doug

Hi Brad, on the right-hand side (driver's side) there should be a coil spring in between the mounting bracket and the cross shaft that takes up any movement in the cross shaft.

Hi Snoop, I am fairly certain that the screws are chromed Phillips head and counter sunk. Rare Spares part number ST0058 for a pack of 10.

Hi Harv, thanks for the update.

What exactly are you after, there are a number of item involved? Doug

Hi Craig, it should just be an interference fit no peined over ends.

Doug

Hi Jolls, I have a pair if you are still in need. Lets say $40.00 for the pair plus postage, PM or e-mail me if you are interested.

Doug

Hi Harv, as I indicated previously put me down for two and thanks for your efforts. Doug

Thanks for all the replies, I worked it out eventually.

Doug

Thanks for the info. The sunvisors are definitely GMH parts and I cannot remember having replaced them, but they could have been sourced from another model i.e. FB or EK.

Doug

A question for the all knowing, my L/H sunvisor has broken so I am attempting to repair it. Upon removing it I noted that the part number (7409689) is followed by LH, I removed the R/H visor and sure enough it has a different part number (7409690) followed by RH. I have been unable to discern a difference between the two. Can someone enlighten me. Regards Doug

Stop looking, part on the way, thanks Brad.

Thanks Art for your e-mail.

Still looking for a Lucas headlight for a FE, the one with the parker in the headlight.

Doug

Hi Longman, I am interested, can you e-mail me a picture of the light/s so that I can confirm they are what I am after. E-mail address is douglas.taege@gmail.com.

Thanks
Doug

Hi All, does anyone have an original Lucas headlight for a FE they are willing to sell. I just noticed my driver's side light lens is cracked.

Doug

Have you checked to make sure the slave cylinder push rod adjusting nut lock nut is tight and not allowing the adjusting nut to unscrew thereby lengthening the slave cylinder piston travel which would reduce the fluid level in the reservoir? Just a thought. Doug

Hi Harv, do you need any payment upfront? If so please provide payment details.

Regards
Doug

Hi Harv, put me down for two.

Thanks
Doug
