Rear Axle
The rear axle was dismantled and the nose piece was removed. It was then stripped and inspected. A new crown wheel and pinion was designed and fitted. The car now boasts a 3.21 : 1 ratio. This gives the car very good long legs on the motorway and also around the country lanes without the need of an overdrive. New half shafts were fitted and new wheel bearings, etc.
Front Axle
The front axle was stripped and new king pins and bushes were fitted. Stub axles were crack tested which came back okay. New wheel bearings and felt washers etc.
Steering Column
The steering column was dismantled and rebuilt with all new bearings. The condition was found to be excellent.
Servo
The servo was dismantled and found to require a new leather seal and brass fingered disc underneath. All components were cleaned and the servo full overhauled. |
