Does anyone know where I could get the rubber bush, sleeved nut and gear lever selector shaft from?

Burtons in the UK have 2000E gearbox parts

We have the lever and a Delrin bush in stock. Sorry, no sleeved nuts (A036F0154F) on hand.

There's a complete gearlever assembly on ebay..... a bit pricey but you could always resell the bits you don't need.

Hi
I tried to get a sleeved nut for mine last year, although listed at SJ Sportscars they didnt have any in stock and wanted a pattern to be able to machine one for me which I obviously didn't have, so I made my own which is quite straight forward. Get a hex headed bolt that fits the bush, drill out the centre and tap the correct thread for the gearstick which I think is 5/16 unf but you'll have to check.

Cheers

Jerry

Could you give me your contact details so I can get in touch regarding the lever. Thanks

Alex,
I thought there were free dxf viewers about. If you get stuck PM and I'll try to convert it to something else.

I will have another look but the 1st freeby viewer didnt work.

Try a pdf if you can convert it.

Hi Guys,

Big thanks to John for sending me the drawing which I managed to open. I am now halfway through making a batch of the sleeve-nuts which appear to be out of stock with the suppliers? So if anyone needs one please feel free to PM me.

A donation from each one sold will go the Great Ormond Street Hospital...... I do need to take back my costs though. as I am now retired.

Cheers!
