Hi guys
I have just purchased a new Girling master cylinder for the clutch on my BJ7, although the body was identical, the rubber covering sleeve and the push rod were different from the old one. I mentioned this to the salesman who in fairness went back to discuss the situation with some one, but came back saying that that was the new Girling replacement. The push rod was now threaded at the end so needed a screw on fork, this was duly purchased, a beefed up version, machined out a billet of steel. I have now started to install it and found that the fork would not fit onto the lug attached to the clutch pedal as the fork was fouling the arm of the pedal.
I referred the situation back to the parts company and they were unaware of the problem, but said that the alternative replica part had the original pushrod/fork set up, and that they would make some enquiries as this was the first complaint. I have now changed over the push rods so have overcome the problem that way. :banana: Has any one else had this experience? I assume that the problem would also exist for the brake master cylinder as they are one in the same.
