Thanks all for the replies.
              I thought there was was a spring on the shaft . Now all I have to do is find one
                     Brad.

   I've seen them in grey like the motor ??
        But that could be fb or ek.

Hi all
      Just fitted the linkage to the firewall and the rod that goes from left to right seems to have a lot off play
      between the locating brackets.
      Is there a spring or something that fits to the end of the linkage rod to take up the play?
      I sort of remember that a small spring and washer was on the left hand side.
      my memory's not to good as it was 35 years ago when I unbolted it
      If not than I might put a couple of felt washers in there to compensate .
              Thanks again Brad.
         

  I think I might have mixed up my tie rod's while working on them.
       One has a part # 9093 and the other has nothing on it . ??
  I'm sure I read here that all left hand parts end in an odd number.
  Or do the original grease nipples face front or rear ?
  All help appreciated.
        Thanks Brad.
       

       Thanks everyone.
                               Washers have been found .
                                      Brad.

    Wanted  Two Stabilizer Washers . The ones that go either side of the stud / spacer that hold the rubbers in place.
                 In the shop manual thy are marked as   (  2.   Retainer -  Grommet.  )
                 The ones on the car ran away when the end of the stud rusted off.
                 Any help appreciated .
                                               Thanks Brad.

 Hi all 
         I'm after 2 stabilizing bar conecting bolts for the FC as mine have rusted with one having no thread at at all on on end.
   In the workshop manual they are called  " Stud - Front Stabilizer Spacer "  . They bolt the stabilizer bar to the lower control arm .
   FB and EK seem to be the same so that would work as well.
   I know that I can get after market generic bolts but I'm trying to keep the car as original as possible .
         Thanks Brad 

   Hi Doug .
                I have two brand new lucas 700 lights with the the hole for the parker same as original. I got them for my FC and when I went to put them in I saw the wiring was different . No parker.
                I paid $110 each for them . I'm in Brisbane so can post to you if you're interested. I can e mail you a pic or 2 if you want.

  Hi John
                They arrived yesterday in the mail. 
        Thanks Brad.

 Hi John
          Can I still get a set of them rubbers  ?
                      Thanks Brad.

Hello Greg
              I did a wheel on my FB a couple of years ago . I cleaned / opened out the cracks with a hacksaw blade then filled in the gaps with araldite. Sanded and filed it back then got a mate to paint it in two pak black. looked as good as new and Cost less than $100.

Hi waynos.
               I would like to buy the inner bracing struts on the van if possible. There are six on a windowless van , three down either side . They run vertically from the roof line down to the top of the rear quarter panel.
              Thanks Brad.

I'm going FE ute. My van has no lock on the drivers door as per commercial. Seems a good price ATM.

  2 x Sliding rear windows to suit van . Fit between the B and C pillar . Made by DENNING, has little blue and silver stickers on each one . Alloy frames are good but rubbers are stuffed and glass on each one has cracks. Glass is laminated and the front piece on one is cracked ,the other is cracked on the rear. Similar in shape and size to wagon rear door window. Pick up from QLD 4161 or can arrange postage at your cost. Nearly went to the dump on the weekend but I thought some one might want them?

It gets even better if you look at the "  Buck Eye "  lantern in their other items. LMFAO.

You might want add a bit more info.  Things like your location and your budget will help.

Hi Franno
              I have one in my shed that is fair condition , Email me at   bandcrodgers@optusnet.com.au    or phone  0468 947 819  and I can send you some pics .
               I'm in Brisbane but I can post it to you in a steel crate but you will have to pay the postage   . I was going to put it on EBay and get a gazillion bucks for a super rare NOS FE horn ring blah blah blah. But I'd rather see some one with a daily driver using it. The $70  bucks you mentioned seems more than fair for one . Also have 2x arm rests for Fe in very ordinary condition if you are interested.
