I had a lottery win the other week and I need rear trunnions for a Herald.. they are a bargain price ??? :-/ :-/. I wonder is they are solid gold? ;D http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VECO-REAR-SUSPENSION-TRUNNION-REPAIR-KIT-RC51888P-TO-FIT-TRIUMPH-HERALD-1-2-68-/360679333704?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&fits=Model%3AHerald&hash=item53fa29df48#ht_1611wt_1170

Would it be an idea to lightly grease the splines? I will remove the plate, was just worried about alignment, haven't do a clutch for 15 years (this one) and have to align it.
-
Gearbox is out (was difficult to desperate from engine) and splines seem a little rusty. Was considering just cleaning up and refitting without removing the driven plate cos I think it was just the splines that was the problem. Should they be grease to prevent this happening again? With cop payslip maybe?
-
I have had no success with all this. To remove the gearbox do I really need to remove the extension/lever etc or should it come out with these attached, please.
-
My problem with all this is that the car has no doors/roof/bonnet etc and I have about two feet in front and behind. I have tried jacking a back wheel and pulling on the handbrake and warmed the engine fully. Also tried cranking the engine with brakes on both in revers and forward. The gearbox cover is already removed and I can see the slave cylinder pushing the mechanism forwards. Would brake cleaner be of any use here?
-
I was hoping I could do it without taking the 'box out. Last time it did this it freed after warming the engine for a while. The carpets are out and the 'box cover is loose so its not too big a deal. I usually leave the clutch down with a lump of wood

I tried the Vitesse today and its started up fine ....outside under a cover...after being laid up since July. However the clutch is stuck on.... Pedal works and slave cylinder is working. Warmed the engine/box for ½ hour. Tried starting in gear back and forth. I dont have much room...I can get the drivers door open.. due to other none working car in the way. Any suggestions, please S
