Hi folks,
Just stripped the remote housing (SD1) on a lt77 and have found loads of wear in the bushes that support the selector rod to the remote housing.
I'm having trouble finding replacements. Rimmers are out of stock and I can't find anyone else who supplies them. Any ideas? Pt no. is TKC 3796
Thanks
Mike

If you can measure the bush, a good bearing shop should be able to supply one, BL , often use standard easily available bushes off the shelf

Are the archives of the previous V8 forum still available, because there will be a thread in there.....
The bushes are a Deva metal type and quite commonly available from any bearing suppliers. Might be Deva DU type or Deva BM can't remember.
A fellow boarder ( Dave from MK ? ) got some after I found a part number and kindly sent me a pair, but I don't have the emails from that long ago.
edit:
little bit of googling and searching my archives has turned up the following:-

Thanks for the help guys,
Had not thought of going to the local bearing supplier, in fact Ashley Power is only about half an hour away, might give them a call.
cheers mike
