Several of you gave me advice about my linkage at the WCC autox (that was the first outing for the car). It was loose and not quite right.
I have taken it off and have found the problem - one of the ball joint shafts is sheared and it was only held by a single thread (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) The linkage looks like the CB Performance one, but I'm pretty sure its not theirs. Mainly the ball joints mount onto the hex cross bar and mate into cups mounted on the Air cleaner bases - the CB performance ones work the other way. Also the CBP ball joints have 8mm thread and tha actual ball looks to be 8mm as well - these have 8mm threads but the ball is 12mm. So does anyone know who makes this linkage, or where I can get new ball joints and new cross bar (the thread is sheared off inside so it cannot be removed)? Otherwise I guess I need a new linkage (I have seen the pretty Triad one, but its a bit costly). Thanks, Richard Attached image(s) |
