...new at offering anything on this website.
But as I go through my restoration, I have had to have several things remanufactured, machined, or re-fabricated when they are no longer available. These particular items are not available from any sources that I can find. 1. bearing bracket bushings, (4), used on 914 750 165 10 and 914 750 271 10. 2. 914 750 189 10, bearing sleeve, (4), used on headlight motor push rod. 3. pivot pin, (2), used on push rod, 914 750 185 11, left and right side. ![]() The material used on items 1 & 2 above is a black acetal resin (Delrin), the original was white. The material used on item 3 is bronze. I increased the root diameter of the threaded portion using a .250-28UNF-3A thread instead of a M6 Thread. I also increased the diameter of the thread relief just before the bearing surface that interfaces with the headlight mounting assembly. (When the M6 nut works it way loose, the part fails forward of the bearing surface on the narrow root diameter of the thread, then the headlight assembly imperceptively flops, but most notible, the headlight doesn't sit flush with the curve of the front trunk lid). The vendor cost of item 1, (4) is $ 8.00 a piece, 4*8=$ 32.00. The vendor cost of item 2, (4) is $ 8.00 a piece, 4*8=$ 32.00. The vendor cost of item 3, (2) is $20.00 a piece, 2*20.00= $ 40.00. (considering the size and weight, or lack there of, shipping is included). This is just what I paid for a one off deal. I'm sure the costs will drop with quantities. Anyone can leave me a personal msg or reply to this thread. Dave Estep, (dlestep). |

I'm interested in these parts for my /6 restoration.
The member/vendor forum is for members that are vendors that intend to produce and sell parts, presumably on an ongoing basis. It really isn't read or responded to on a daily basis by the members at large like the garage. If you were to produce these parts for sale on a regular basis, then an announcement in the garage that your providing this product with a link to a thread in member/vendor forum would be the thing to do. If you want to put together a group buy type of situation for these parts, that's different and this thread certainly could go to the garage. What do you want to do? |
