Thanks All, There does not appear to be an extension on it as such. Best I take a picture and post it. Cheers Pete

Hi All Is there an extension available for the 4 speed Ford gearbox fitted in my Lotus 7 S2?. Its too far forward to be comfortable now I have the seating in the right place for me. Regards Pete

These are the bars in question. I`ll try facebook and see if I can contact Chris there. Cheers Pete

Its an imperial car but my micrometer is metric so theres an element of rounding probably. I did try redline but they seem hard to get hold of. 1/2" and 3/8 sounds about right. Are these available from caterham? I`ll grab a picture of the links in question Cheers Pete

Hi All Looking for the two rear tie bar bushes for the series 2. Anyone know a source, I`ve so far turned up nothing. One is appx. 27mm OD 12.6mm ID and 24mm wide. The other 19mm OD 10mm ID and 22mm wide Pete

Before After Many thanks all. Its indeed a Dolomite and is almost certainly someones modification.at some point. The problem was the drivers side brake was reassembled incorrectly after the shoes were replaced. Theres a H section metal fitting which should go next to the handbrake/self adjust lever. It was fitted below the lever. On to the next job! Cheers Pete

I'm now wondering Triumph GT6 or possibly Dolomite?

Thanks all, I`ll dig further tomorrow and post what I find. Its becoming a bit of a mystery as to what they originate from. Here's a picture of the axle I took later

Heres a few pictures I took, I suspect that the drums have been changed

Its not that then, this has coil over springs Cheers Pete

Hi Has anyone got an assembly diagram for a S2 rear drum brake. While I`m awaiting suspension components, I took the drums off. One side the handbrake doesn't really work on, the other side binds. At some point its had replacement cylinders and shoes and I`m convinced its reassembled incorrectly or broken, possibly both. Its the self adjusting version. Possibly Triumph Herald based?. Pete

Thanks Andrew, been away a few days so just online now. I`ll give them a shout early week. The cable fitted is way too long, I`ll probably change the rear suspension bushes while I`m at it. Regards Pete

Hi All, anyone know what the main handbrake cable is on the S2 and where to get one?, thats the one from the lever to the axle, its a rear drum brake system. Regards Pete

I'll check the alignment later today, thats a possibility

Hi Ian yes, its quite scabby in parts but solid. At the moment I`m getting rid of anything I don't like the looks of and will then rebuild over time. I`ve not had a serious play in it yet, hopefully I`ll get a chance before winter sets in.Looks like its had many hands on it over the years, none of them particularly good. I`ll post pictures as I go if anyones Interested. For interest this is what was used to support the heater and vents once I got it out!, nasty! Cheers Pete.
