Another mystery object..

PostPost by: JJDraper » Sat Nov 29, 2014 4:49 pm

Actually two similar ones..

These were being used as trim spacers on my +2 - no idea what they are, but they seem to be made to fine tolerances and are very hard.

The first one has what looks like a semicircular bearing surface, but no other marks.

The second one has a number scribed onto the surface, which suggests some importance - part number? Could be a top-hat spacer, for a valve train, but what engine, I have no idea.

Any suggestions?

Custom door bushes? Standard is poly that wears and causes slop in door. Cheap part nightmare job....

They certainly look like door hinge bushes to me, but not original. I had something like that made for my Europa.
