Unfortunately it isn't than simple. The clevis joint needs to be in the same plane as the one at the other end of the rod.

I'm in the process of upgrading my 1955 Plus 4 to later 7HA type brakes

I'll have a pair of backplates for sale shortly with newly rebuilt wheel cylinders, adjusters and rear handbrake pull rods.

Will be selling as complete unit though, no splitting

Yesterday, actually, I got the front valance from Wolf Performance temporarily in place. I'll bolt it in after a bit more adjustment today.

Following the MIL indication last Sunday, it was diagnosed to be faulty EGR unit. Had my local garage replace it and now fine. A pig to get at, as it is on the end of the cylinder head at the back. Car has done 47k miles.

Installed the new floorboards today using the T-nut method in Fred Sisson's Bedside Reader. I made a very shallow counterbore on the top so the T-nut is flush with the surface. Thanks, Fred!!

Rebuilt a 3HA rear axle.

Crack tested the half shafts and lapped the hubs onto the shaft.

Mocked up the 7HA/Austin A60 type rear brake backplates. Found a 3mm spacer was needed so cut one out of steel plate with the gas axe and mounted it on stub mandrel in the lathe (actually an old kingpin - necessity being the mother of invention).

Drilled the spacer and lined every thing up.

Then my mate Big Dave turned up with a steering coupling he needed modifying for his BMW rally car so did that.

Will start on the axle again in the morning!!
