Thanks Nick, that makes it difficult with the angle. Spitfire 1500 radius arms have an angle as well. Have some surplus ones, but they are angled about 85 - 86 degrees. Thought I could use some of them. And I cannot go to Stoneleigh this year 🤔 Martin

Measurement highly appreciated. From the picture it seems that the angle is only at the long rod. Martin

Hi Nick, bush housings in a GT6 are square to the rod. My late Spitfire 1500 has a slight angle. Length GT6 are 90mm and 250mm measured according to your labeling. Mine have a total lengh of appr 400mm on the car. As adjustable radius arms are either expensive or totally corroded, I try to make some from old Herald ones , cutting them and welding in a threaded tube. Martin

if you give google " D89SPT Bastuck " you will be directed to the correct page. Number D89SPT quite down on the page. or In their shop you first have to chose "rear axle" on the left side and then under the menue on top ("please make your choice) you can chose "rear axle / differential". Then everything pops up. Martin

Hi, Moss sells as well Spax dampers for the conversion kit with shortened length. Important if the car is lowered TT3611. Work well on my GT6 with a 1/2 inch plate to lower the rear. Martin

Hi, the contact is at the very very low end of the tooth, say the lower 25% are only "contracted". So consensus is that I will reduce shims and thus move pinion away from the CW. Martin

Handbrake not an issue with TÃœV in Germany :) No different regulation. The GT6 had at last TÃœV in October 170 daN at the front and 160 daN at the rear. The handbrake produced 120 daN. New old stock shoes at the rear much much better than the stuff currently sold. Martin

Hi, after being unhappy with the Tandem brake master, since yesterday I do have a new brake setup in the GT6 with 0.7 master (single line) and a brake servo. It works very well. It´s definitely an upgrade. Pedal effort reduced and a very good braking power with 1144 Mintex at the front and original Girling shoes at the rear. Martin
