Thread: Gilbert

Thanks John.
Went to local bearing place, used for 30 odd years.
Very over priced, but always helpful.
All young new faces, just was told we 'dont have that or that or that, maybe get that'
Never even measured the oil seals, or 'O' rings.
Maybe has changed hands ?
Walked out very unhappy and wont be walking back in the door again.
Very poor customer service. Sign of the times, or just getting Old.
Overseas order for Basic seals and bearings.
Large roller bearing ordered over the phone at Murwillumbah Repco. 'Not in stock, one here in the morning'

Sorry to hear that - does sound like it may have changed hands!

If the thrust bearings are 20x35x2 and 30x47x2 mm you can probably get them from RS Components in NSW.

Gilbert is coming 'HOME' (ster)
Just have to organise trailer.
Watch this space, lots of restored bits to go on.
Remember, Ssshhhhh.
You know who, may be watching.

Hopefully he’s too busy mucking around with his 101...

My spidey senses were tingling so course this is the first place I came... 😉

Only just got home so no 101 wok tonight. 😞

267412. Could someone please tell me if it attaches to the rear, RH gearbox bracket, lower or upper stud. the position fitted, and whether it goes onto or under the nut locking plate.
Thanks
