stomp Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 I'm looking for the pivot for the vent window if anyone can point me in the right direction. The one that s mounted on the window has snapped. The one on the frame is fine .Is there a repair kit ??? I randomly came across a repair kits a year or so ago but can't find anyone that sells them now. Or is it a case of buying the complete part???Thanks Dave Quote
timireson Posted January 3, 2018 Posted January 3, 2018 I've spent the last two hours searching for this part!! Answers welcomed. T Quote
stomp Posted January 3, 2018 Author Posted January 3, 2018 I hear ya, I thought trying to source the plastic boot hinge cover was hard . Surely there must be cheap quick fix?? 🤔(huh)(huh)(huh) Quote
chunky63 Posted January 4, 2018 Posted January 4, 2018 If memory serves me right its 1/4 UNF. not sure of the length and if the head is square rather than hex.https://www.canleyclassics.com/triumph-gt6-mki/ii-door-assemblyYou might also try looking at MG parts (don't tell anyone though !) as the Midget and MGB have very similar setup.

byakk0 Posted January 4, 2018 Posted January 4, 2018 Stomp, I make the plastic hinge covers. PM me if you need one.I may also have the pivot part, if you have a photo of the needed part. Quote
Dogsbody47uk Posted January 4, 2018 Posted January 4, 2018 Try Mick Dolphin, but you need to know the part number. Quote
stomp Posted January 6, 2018 Author Posted January 6, 2018 Quoted from vitessesteve Is this the part? Hi all, it's item 20 in the picture , kind of bullet shaped with the pin, mounted to the window that goes onto the door frame , That's the part I need . Hope that helps. Desperately need one . Can imaging riveting it on will be a little tricky bin manigable ! Thanks all hope this makes sense, kind of new to all this and been winging it so far. Quote
stomp Posted January 10, 2018 Author Posted January 10, 2018 Quoted from byakk0 What side? I think those are handed. the left hand side one, You maybe have one??????thanks Dave Quote
byakk0 Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 The one I have is snapped also. The bottom one screws into the frame. I bet you could remove it , then drill out the top one and epoxy in a pin....You mentioned hatch spring covers earlier. I make those, if you need one. Quote

I searched forever for the Hatch spring covers then when I eventually found one I found two, I even have a spare now 🙂desperately need the hinge though, even if I can modify one from another car, Quote
