Hi Guys,
Has anyone reconditioned or have, a dead easy air pump ? and the ability to identify the thread used for the air fittings ? And is the top fittings thread the same as the link pipe/tube thread?
I have just cleaned up an shabby looking pump , greased up the leathers and joints, cleaned up and painted the castings , polished the cylinders and cleaned up the check-valves & bolts, then rebuilt. On testing I find the balance pipe/tube cracked was (not desturbed) and is leaking .
I have taken the top castings to a local pipe hose & fitting (mostly hydraulics) shop, but they could not match.
If I can match (prefered) the thread great or I will just have to tap the castings M6 or 1/8npt or what ever can work for me.
Thanks in anticipation .
Regards Des.

Hi Guys , Does any one know were I can get another rear lamp as in photos attached ? Also is this the origenal Q type lamp ?
Thanks Des

Hi all, Des from Melbourne Australia.
Thanks Garry (AussieQ)for introducing me to this site, it has given me many hours of interesting reading and reserch.
I have a 28 canadian RHD build sedan . I need information.
I have had many issues with the braking system on my car although it was stopping well.
The one thing I am not on top of yet is the rear brake mountng plate, as left and right have different plates.
One has a larger hole that goes around bearing ~69mm flat hole, and the other ~54mm ~2.1" rounded/rolled radus hole.
I do not know if the axle housing is original Q or other, I assume Q.
I assume the axle bearing should protrude the axle housing and the backing plate go around the bearing with seal assembly & other disc/ring drilled scacer plate be the retainer,
or shound the bearing be flush with diff housing and the smaller hole plate acts as a retainer.
Ply33.com  shows part 43694 for Q and some U then part 301473 for rest of U and 30U. (any body know the diference ?)
Ply33 only shows 1 seal/housing, However I have one at 15mm high & one at 18mm high (which has rubed on drum).
At this stage my plan is to mill out the smaller holed plate  to 69mm hole, and make up some new retaining plates to go behind the seal housings. If the small holed plate is correct I may be able to get hold of another small holed backing plate.
If I figure how to upload photos they will follow in the future.
To the Melbourne Australia members I hope to catch up with you all some day.
Thank-you Des.
