Laycock de Normanville D-Type Overdrive Assembly Part 1 | Triumph Spitfire Restoration Part 93

[@mcloviinz]

just got a pair of twin HS4's from quantum. Guy is a treasure for anyone in the US needing harder to find triumph parts

[@StevesProjectCarGarage]

Absolutely. He was fantastic to work with getting my parts and answering my questions.

I can see why you'd be nervous about fitting those bearings. But it looks like nice smooth movement when you spun it a bit. Great work.

[@StevesProjectCarGarage]

Thank you! I have learned quickly in this restoration how quickly things can go pear shaped with a press.

Doubt hat stud is designed to hold the filter. It can use some thread sealant/gasket goop so it doesn't weep/leak.

[@StevesProjectCarGarage]

I agree. It just happened to conveniently be in the way of the filter.

Enjoying this series. Did you find that screw?

[@StevesProjectCarGarage]

I couldn’t find one specific for the OD but I did find a very suitable replacement at ACE.

[@harpersisland]

Was there any suggestion to heat up the rear case before pressing it on?

[@StevesProjectCarGarage]

Nope, but I don’t recall it giving me any issue.
