I don't believe there is any difference - I recently rebuilt my front end and used standard trunnions from ESM. My car is an early Series II with MM front end, and they fitted just fine.

I guess unless you want the solid bronze top links?

The stub axles are different on the Series MM and 1000 swivel pins. but the trunnions fit both swivel pins. If the swivels are worn then the conversion is on the Series MM website, Tech. Info.

The only different trunnions are the early brass ones which wear more than the later ones but still fit. They are really for show cars
