  2. Hi to all ,sorry to ask a question im sure has been asked many times before but im still confused by it? my rear tub has had all body work welding etc completed and is now upside down primed and i will then gravitex,however i want to attach anchor points for the lap belts at this time,there were no rear belts when i purchased the car[1200 herald convertible] can anybody advise as to location/floor positions/distances between/type of anchor bolts/ please? also if positioned in rear spring well will they obstuck the fitting of the leaf spring? im still toying at this time with the front belts whether to go inertia or use the rear wheel arch set up but thats just another piece of the big puzzle ,many thanks Neil

  4. Hi to all ,just had a quick clean an look at my gear box and noticed two things i would like help with please,the box has a small plate attached to the mounting bracket with a stablising bar and two rubber grommets attached,a quick search seems to suggest these attachments were on early heralds? i take it these are no longer required as the rubbers are no longer available? my box has the number GB212232 what information does that tell me ie age/type etc etc

Hi to all,just finishing all bodywork on my refurb and body due to go to painters soon.Starting to think about gearbox,ive been quoted large amounts to have bearings/seals etc,i can do this myself i dont want to change everything just for the sake of it,what would be the general advice be to get started please,the engine/gearbox last ran about fours years ago when original owners drove it onto the trailer,although coughing and spluttering they are both an unknown quantity.Regards Neil

Hi to all,ive just started to refurb the leaf spring which i had taken apart some time ago,i cannot find the center bolt [which i put somewhere save and cant remember where] i cant see this item clearly in the manual,am i right in thinking it has a rounded end so as to fit into the diff hole,any ideas on replacement/advice please. regards Neil
