yorkshire_spam Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 At a rough measurement I recon I need 506 (5/32" shank,3/8" length) but I'd rather know for sure before I drill the old ones out (in case I order the wrong size replacements)Anyone know for sure what size the brush box rivets are? I can't find the size in either the Spitfire workshop manual or the lucas manual for the m35j.Cheers,Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piman Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Hello Sam, do you need to use rivets, why not use nuts and bolts, Lucas use rivets because they are cheap?Alec Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yorkshire_spam Posted November 6, 2012 Author Share Posted November 6, 2012 I guess I could use some small nut n bolts - I guess I was just getting to wrapped up in putting it back how it was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yorkshire_spam Posted November 9, 2012 Author Share Posted November 9, 2012 H Roger, thanks for the link, but those are the same guys as Richard linked to above (via eBay)They didn't know about the rivets, but I guess I could ask them about suitable bolts.Cheers,Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
