spm Posted January 28, 2018 Posted January 28, 2018 Seems like my assumption that I could use the input shaft nose from my type E for coming out for my type 9 going in was incorrect. Should have looked into it a bit more. Anyone have one or any ideas where to get one ...apart from Qaiffe/Burton @ £75 !! Thnaks Simon

Could be, dont know part no. specifcally as I have'nt got one, not sure if there are many variants or just long and short. In Israel as well, was hoping for something a little more local in case its not right !
wizzer Posted January 28, 2018 Posted January 28, 2018 Thought they where all the same length , isn't it the shaft thats different size This any good https://www.bearingkits.co.uk/Ford-Sierra-Type-9-gearbox-front-cover-clutch-bearing-tube/674.htm
Phil J Posted January 28, 2018 Posted January 28, 2018 I think I've still got one somewhere as I took it off when changing to a hydraulic clutch slave cylinder - anyone that has gone down the hydraulic clutch route may also have one spare. Can I just confirm that the part you want is part that the clutch release bearing slides on over the input shaft of the box?

Hi, Yep thats right also described as a gearbox front cover / clutch bearing tube. Sounds positive, I was hoping it could be something that someone had hanging around. Let me know if you find it and are happy to part with it. Thanks

Could cut down if it is I suppose, but rather not. I'll give them a call as well. Thanks for your help.

NDS Posted January 28, 2018 Posted January 28, 2018 Have a couple in the work shop, Pm with your address and i will send them - Neil @ Areodynamix 1
B.RAD Posted January 29, 2018 Posted January 29, 2018 Hi, I've got a spare bellhousing with the nose cone incorporated, it's not alloy so if weight is a concern it won't help much, but otherwise would be an ideal solution. Let me know if it's of any interest. Cheers Barny
spm Posted January 29, 2018 Author Posted January 29, 2018 Hi Barney, its the box I bought from you that I'm putting in.....eventually (don't ask !!) Think I might have one from Neil (NDS), above, he is going to put one in the post for me. I have an alloy bellhousing so seems logical to retain that, but I will be in touch if that doesn't work out. Thanks Simon
B.RAD Posted January 29, 2018 Posted January 29, 2018 Hi Simon, no worries at all, I knew it was you who bought the box but wasn't sure if it was the same one! You'll love it once it's in (said the actress to the bishop!! ) If Neil can't help just give me a shout. All the best Barny
