Smiths Speedos
I have a couple of Smiths speedos that I acquired some time ago in a box of bits and I have no use for them. I have no idea whether they are in working order but it would be a crime just to throw them away so either or both are available for £10 each plus postage. The serial numbers are: SN 4401/15 ...

Re: Roll Bar Bushes
I fitted the new bushes this weekend and it's made a big improvement on cornering stability. There's no doubt the anti-roll bar does reduce body roll into corners, whether you actually like that is another matter. My only concern now is whether I'll go into corners faster without the body lean to re...

Re: Roll Bar Bushes
Thanks for the helpful replies, the bushes arrived from ESM today and they are an exact match. I guess it's no surprise a garage specialising in Morris Minors should use off the shelf bushes for its upgrade kit. If anyone has a set of Practical Classics back issues my car is featured in the July 199...

Re: Roll Bar Bushes
Just emailed ESM some pictures of the bushes and they reckon they might be the spring bushes from a Minor van. At 60p each they're worth a shot.

Re: Roll Bar Bushes
As I understood it, ESM took over all grumpy products?? Give them a call, they may know who to go to if they don't stock them. I tried ESM but they didn't have the Grumpy fittings. I was hoping the bushes were a standard design or pinched from some other suspension component. It seems unlikely they...

Re: Roll Bar Bushes
Do ESM not stock em? Afraid not, I've looked at their bushes and anti-roll bar and the design is quite different. I've just been on a test drive with the anti-roll bar removed and I can't detect any change in the handling. I suspect there was so much play in the bushes (the bar just fell out when I...

Roll Bar Bushes
I have a "Mr Grumpy" roll bar on my traveller but the bushes are worn out and I want to replace them. As far as I can see no one stocks the "Mr Grumpy" design any more so can anyone suggest a source of bushes? The internal diameter is 18mm, external diameter 28mm, length 26mm wit...
