Is it possible to put new bushes in the top trunnion in situ?

all done!
got the ESM unit
thanx for all the info
ian

I would be interested to know as well

yes it cuts out the regulator doesn't it?
the acr alternator.. do you know what model will fit, and what car type it comes from?
would a metro 1275 a+ fit the bill?

i thought only the 1500 had the alternator? If it is the same block then there should be no problem, Doe anybody know? There is precious little information out there on 1275 conversion save a company in the USA mossmotors.com who do one for $200.. I am looking for a home grown alternative if possible.

hi.
Has anybody converted a 1275 midget 111 engine from dynamo to alternator.
If so what alternator did you use? and did you have to adapt the mountings.and did you use the same belt, if not what sort.
the car has been converted to negative earth. it also uses full midget instruments.
thanx

does anybody know the difference between the 948 cylinder & the 1098 one

mg say they can't recognise numbers
they suggest physical check against a midget drum or.......it might be off an a35

a real bitser "Iam thinking"

thanks willie
how can i identify the drum? stamped on the inside is ata7057 does that help at all?

sorry to sound a bit dense but, the cylinder--assembly wheel in my book shows a difference between the 948 & the 1098 also the adjuster, although the shoes are the same. as you say for all models. Could the wrong cylinder account for the tight fit. Its hard to remember 10 years ago and my paperw...

to clarify a point then, the axle is prob 1098, Yes?
because there is a difference in the wheel cylinders between the 803,948 and the 1098 rbk 105 & rbk 106

whats the point of putting a 1098 in diff in a 948 casing?

sooo what type of brake shoes do i need? i have ha this vehicle for the past 20 years resting up in my garage i thought it was about time that i paid him more attention! unfortunately about ten years ago i deceided to replace the shoes that were on the car and threw out the old ones. having looked a...

hi Cam.
It has a 'banjo' type axle & yes I could not find a filler hole, which was a little sad after I had drained all the oil out!
I eventually refilled it via the breather.

i have a series 11 which i can only describe as being altered as opposed to modified. my question refers to rear brakes.. diff has been changed it appears to be two different halves as it has no means of filling it. engine & gearbox is midget 111. backplate has 34571rh drum ata7057 & thingy ...
