Brent , I thought about the change over and was ready to doit. Then I found
the identical unit fits the MG older style that is,,,is rebuildable. the
only diff is the arms and now iI can't find the old email from REX that
also vanished on how to make the fittment. How ever any one that owns one of
these should be able to rebuild ("ANYTHING"..!!...)

It would only take one brave person to doit. drilling and welding is the
hardest part. You can find just about any tube that will fit.And in the past
year (now that I have a brown bubbly) it seams someone has done this...?
Good luck on your endeavor
