Anyone have one for the dual line system? Need one.

Thanks,
Mickey
 
More than likely there is one in the bucket/tub of dual M/C's in the barn. Give me some deminsional info. Size of the end that goes into the M/C (dia. of the 1/2 hemisphere shape and the depth) and the length from pivot pin hole to the M/C end. I can then look at what I've got.

Can look tonight if I get the info. Out of town for the Drivers School at Roebling Rd. for Th-Su. Back late and then can check Mon night.

HTH,
Mike Miller
 
Thanks, Mike. Since I don't have one handy, it's difficult to make any measurements. But as long as it fits the dual-line, non-servo cylinder for either the B or Midget, that's the one I need.

I'll take a look, and if I don't hear from anyone else before you get back, will let you know.

:cheers:

Sure,

I'll do a quick check of what I can find tonight and see what they look like. I have lots of salvaged single and dual cylinders for various vehicles in a 5 gallon bucket down in the barn and most of the pushrods are separate.

You might want to save all the dual-line push rods, as they seem to be pretty scarce!
 
Mike and Mickey Pushrod is 3 - 1/2" long. 1/2" spread on the fork. 5/16" clevis pin hole located 5/16" from the fork end.

If you are still in need of one of these M/C pushrods, I found two over the weekend down in the barn. Never found my box/bucket full of M/C's. Must be hidden in the "Triumph" shed out back or under something in the barn. Found one pushrod in a loose M/C and another in a box of stuff acquired years ago from a Richmond,VA "unfinished- project" purchase.

Anyway, both have some rust blemishes on them around where the pushrod is exposed outside the rubber boot. Not too bad, but one is a little worse than the other. And, its welding to the fork end is not as well centered. Holes for the pivot pin look to be worn about the same.

$5 for the lesser quality one
$7.50 for the better one

S&H is additional. Let me know if you want one.

Thanks,
Mike Miller

Thanks, Mike - should have posted that I got one over the weekend.
 
No problem. It's been a busy couple of weeks on my end and I meant to go look for these sooner. Now I know where two are and can respond sooner if someone else needs one.
