Hi Dave and all.
        
        I have to jump in here and brag about the "Heavy Duty Clutch Linkage" 
with ball joint linkage offered by Brit Car Specialists.  I thought I 
had a bad rear main bearing in the 100, there was so much clatter under 
there. All it was, was a VERY loose, original clutch linkage.  The 
holes were worn to an oval shape and the cotter pins holding everything 
together had been worn to a thread, they broke off in my hand when I 
started to remove them.
        The new linkage is smooth as silk and eliminated all the rattling down 
there.  Well worth every penny of the upgrade.  Thanks Norman.
        Oh, my front linkage was facing down as well,  who are these PO's 
anyway and what were they thinking?
