45" shifter fork shims

#1

Post by nan00k »

Need to make up some shifter fork shims (Prt # 6750 and 6752) before I pull the tranny apart. All parts houses seem to have big buck minimum orders that make a couple of shims out of the question does anyone have ID and OD dim's for these parts ?.
Thanks in advance.

Fear not, Dear Albion! Your Sons and Daughters and your good Neighbours have meat, bread and wine for your table, and you will Findus without horse flesh. The Sun never set on the Empire, the dark skies were a EU pulling the wool over your ayes.

Give the farmers a wave when you're riding by.

You may call her Perfidious Albion, but our Dear Albion does not fall back because of Augustin Louis de Ximénes' exhortation in his poem L’Ere des Francais (Era of the French), published in 1793, "Let us attack perfidious Albion in her waters".

Being a 1/4 English myself, I'm not too happy with the Brexit; sending parts and stuff over the Chanal has been a costly adventure since...

How is it that some European parts suppliers will not send out of Europe. It is often a waste of time seeking parts to come from EU countries to Australia.

As for smuggling, I come from good Cornish stock - pirates of Penzance and all that.

And he has a too high minimum order!

Makes no sense to me, a sale is a sale. And the customer pays for shipping as well. I don’t get it.

Cause usa would buy everything they have, store would be empty.
