75 nine fourteen

I use a wooden dowel a close fit in the bearing, fill the bore with grease and give the dowel a sharp hit and the bearing will pop out.

 

I have flywheel off so just tap it out from rear

The flywheel just has a parallel hole so as it’s off just tap it out .

 

Engine tin powder coated and rear brake backing plates ... bargain at £40

Euro indicators ordered .

 

You might be lucky and it comes out in one peice, more likely it’ll fall to bits and the outer race will still be in there, careful grinding with a dremel until it’s so thin in one spot it’ll break and come out was my method!

 

RHD Hella headlights done and fitted

 

Cracking - tell me more! Where did you get the light unit and what’s that aluminium top hat thing?

 

I couldn't find 7 inch RHD sealed units or ones that didn't have a side light bulb ...these are cheap Jeep Wrangler Hella units from eBay £30 . The aluminium plug seals the hole left when side light bulb is removed ... They fit the existing frame perfect .....if you want I'll send eBay link ...

I also have the Eruo front lenses but am waiting for the wiring kit , again Hella ....

Had a bit of a nightmare changing gearbox input and out put seals as they were brittle ....

 

Oh yes please. It’ll be quite a while before I get round to it it but I can put it on the list. Currently on a marathon case clean while I await return of crank, rods etc.

 

These are without sidelights https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/7-Inch-H...703739?hash=item3d656ddc7b:g:2hMAAOSw9N1Vrl65

 

Yes those are the ones I bought ..check out pic 3 , it shows side light hole

 

I also have stripped down the SC engine to fit the 914 tin ....

 

Daft question, are all 914's left hookers?

 

Yes. ..….….and no .... there was a company that converted a number of them but all left the factory as lefties

 

Must be a fair old job to convert them, is it worth it do you think?

 

handbrake it the pain as its by the drivers door .... must all be a lot of work

 

Had to modify the oil filler from bay to 914..
Dipstick might be harder

 

Picked up a bargain , pretty much rust free exhaust from eBay ...looks genuine .. will look in to ceramic coating for J tubes ...

 

Struggling to find CV joints . You can convert bug 94 x 32 x 33spline but I can’t find decent GKN ones for a decent price

 

Machined pulley shaft to miss tin ... it’s going to be a tight fit
