I have a question about steering column bushings. This isn't an MGB, but the parts are they same so hopefully one of you 'B owners has been through this and can offer some advice. Anyway, I installed

I NEED new front sub axles for my spline-drive/wire wheel 289 Cobra. They are no longer available, but 427 pin-drive stub axles are. I had this thought. Close scrutinization of the drawings of the st

Any Fiberglass experts out there? I want to refurbish the dreary looking footboxes on my snake. I plan to re-coat the insides with epoxy to replace the surface coat that the contact cement stripper I

Next question for today. Dave Bean Engineering, and others I'm sure, sell accordion shaped rubber diaphragm that fit under brake and clutch reservoir caps. The purpose of these diaphragms is to give

I've actually had pretty good luck just using propane heat- depends on how good of a heat sink the surrounding material is. I do have a MAPP rig just in case, though. Roland

Thanks Randy, I was kinda thinking along these lines too, though I was planning on a graphite/grease rather than graphite/oil mix. I have the old felt bushing and while it is greasy, I'm pretty sure

I'm quite sure the front stub axles aren't the same as for the Ace. When the Ace 2.6 was morphed into the Cobra, a number of components in the drive-train had to be upgraded to accommodate the highe

Surely this has to be your personal choice. I've never cared for MGAs myself, even when they were new. On the other hand, my son thinks they are really cool looking. Guess what my pick would be. Gues
