Subject: [Bmcu] Source for front wheel bearings

Quick question for the TR crowd (as well as those knowledge in TR type 
parts). I'm going to redo the front bearings on the Lotus Europa. Lotus 
used Triumph spindles and bearings. Is there a good place local to SLC 
to buy bearings? Or should I just order off the net?

Lee,

KAMAN Industrial Technologies, 1750 South 4370 West, Salt Lake City, 801-975-2000 should have any bearings you need. Take your old bearings with you when you go to KAMAN.

In my continued quest for get my Lotus ready for spring travel, I'm 
currently redoing the headlight buckets. There are two adjusters in each 
bucket. On one of mine, both of the nylon (or plastic?) nuts that fit 
into the headlight bucket are broken. Does anyone know if these are 
available? I've checked the local parts stores and the ones that they 
have are WAY too big. All I really need is the nylon part, I still have 
both of the screws.

So, any suggestions?

Lee, 

I don't know what shape you need but maybe you could just cut a piece of scrap nylon and tap it for the thread?

Lee,

Do the nuts need to be plastic? If not then that would open up your
options. Otherwise perhaps somewhere like fastenal might be of help. They
certainly would have a larger selection than Lowes etc.

Lee,
After owning a few Lotus cars I assure you these parts are made specific to t=
he task. Many nylon parts are used to prevent things like excessive stress t=
o fiberglass parts etc. to source these parts try companies dedicated to Lot=
us cars like Dave Bean engineering in California.
Cheers,
Rob

Duff,

Bingo! That is exactly what I need. Those little black pieces! I'm not 
sure why I didn't check ebay, I guess my brain was too cold from working

Anyway, thanks to all who responded and especially Duff!
