Hi all, Just just bought a 1500 Dolly, and would like to convert to overdrive. I have all the bits from an overdrive 1500 spitfire, so I just need the dolomite specific bits. I'm guessing these would be gear lever, prop, and possibly gearbox mounting. Can anyone tell me if there is anything else, or even better offer the parts for sale. Thanks, Dave Jones

It's a voltage stabiliser I was trying to think of, not a ballast resistor

Hi Dave, There's more to it than making sure you get a sender if you change tank/sender type. Can't remember which way around it is, but one type of sender has something, I think a ballast resistor, behind the speedo/fuel gauge, that is required for the fuel gauge to read properly.

Do it properly - replace the bushes, they're cheap, takes 1 - 2 hours depending on experience. Some garages fail the play on MoT. The old ones are difficult to get out, so cut the rubber protrusions and push the old ones further into the column, then push new ones in.
