Ken

Hi All

I have bought a GRP Boot Cover from Kit Spares and I am wondering the best method to fix it to the rear chassis on my 2B. I have looked at the Forums but can't see how to secure it to the chassis I would like a smooth finish as in some of the pictures.

Thanks Ken

Thanks I will have a closer look at the setup.

I have done exactly as you said and it is now correct but I was wondering why there is such a discrepancy between both sides.

Hi I have a 2B with sliding pillar front suspension, the problem is the camber angle is deferent on both sides of the car when the top mounts are set identical. Can any one help.

Thanks to all who replied to my post, I am almost there with the tyre and wheel size, would the V speed rating on the lower profile tyres affect the IVA test.

I am looking for some advice on wheel and tyre size for my 2B with sliding pillar front suspension, rear arches are wider than normal with 100mm from the rear axle to outside of rear wheel arch, front mudguard width is 200mm. I was thinking 7 x 13 Minilites or 7 x 15 Minilites with 205/50 x ? Tyres. Any advice would be appreciated.

Hi Bob that's the money in your account now.

Regards Ken

That's great I don't need it urgently, if you can let me know the postage (Parcel Force mite be the cheapest) and your bank details I will put the money in your Bank Account if that's ok with you.

Looks good to me how much are you asking for the rod?

Hi yes it is the Solid Rod I am looking for. The one I want replace is overall 415mm, diameter 20mm, the bar not including threaded ends is 340mm. How can I upload a picture to show you from an I Pad.

Hi All has any one got a Piston Rod in good condition for a 2B sliding pillar suspension. Regards Ken

Hi all has anyone fitted an S7 four branch exhaust manifold to a 2B and what modifications were made to the manifold or car. I have been told by GBS the S7 is a slimmer chassis and they didn't think it would fit. Anyone know what a four branch for a 2B would cost.

Regards Ken

Will a S7 2lt Pinto four branch exhaust manifold fit a 1800 SOHC 2B Robin Hood regards Ken

Hi all

Can any one help with a diagram of how the sliding pillar on a 2B is constructed or explain the correct way it is built. Is there two roller bearings one top and one bottom as I am not sure if all the parts on my suspension are there.

Regards Ken

Hi can anyone help I am fitting a Handbrake Assembly to my 2B I am trying to narrow the handbrake cables to fit inside the tunnel.

I have crossed the cables over using a double pulley would this be OK with the IVA test, see pick.

Would it be better to fit Fuel and Brake lines on top of the centre chassis members or on the floor pan to avoid the Handbrake Assembly bearing in mind the IVA test, see pick.

Regards Ken

Hi Tony the rear suspension was already fitted to the car before I got it, there is no movement in the springs and it is all secure. The clearance between the ground and sump is 4 inches 100 mm and the clearance between lowest part of the rear cross member is 5 inches 130 mm. The rear suspension is well clear of the driveshaft.

Ken

Hi Tony will the standard rear suspension in the pick pass the IVA test.

Ken

I hope this has worked? let me know.

Ken

Hi Steve

I think I have tried all ways to upload the picks with Photobucket but it is not happening, I don’t think I will bother with pictures on this site unless my daughter can help????

Ken

Hi all

Sorry for not getting back sooner, due to work and trying to find a camera with less pixels for the pictures I have now solved all the problems. From the pictures I was sent it is definitely a 2B. I have attached two pictures one of the front suspension to confirm it is a 2B and one of the rear, will this rear setup pass the SVA or would it be better fitting coil over’s to the rear or all round. Still working on the hand brake but the engine now runs after about 18 months not being turned over.

Regards Ken

Sorry still cant upload pictures can anyone help?

Sorry cant upload pics

Hi cant find my previous Topic in the Forum to reply, can anyone help, dose it expire after a cretin time it was posted in September it was from KenO regarding IVA/SVA.

Thanks Ken
