If it's the shell of the pod that has a leak,there are many products on the market that will give you a fix...

If its the bellows (I've never done this) it may be possible to open the sphere with a fine slit,inspect/fix the bellows and re-glass the sphere back together...

First to fix the leak you have to find it...

Hi

I've aquired a couple of motors from a Volvo 480 which I'm intending to install in a +2. I've identified the various connections and can fabricate a bracket, but can anyone tell me where I can source the plastic rod ends in the UK, as shown in the earlier pictures?

Thanks

Kevin

Mail order companies like RS Components http://rswww.com
should do various connections.
Alternatively specialist companies like

I adapted ball joints from a windscreen wiper linkage assembly I sourced from a car breakers.

I think they came from a Vauxhall Astra, but most modern vehicles use similar joints. One advantage of them compared to the standard enineering stock item is that they are designed to be used outdoors on a vehicle without lubricatio. The disadvantage is that you may need to modify them to suit you application.
