Still waiting for some replacement parts so that I can get it rolling and wheel it to and from my other garage but I got the steering hashed out.
The cast UJ from Rally Design is poor. The holes are not in the right position to stop the splined ends from pulling out. :rolleyes: Ill try opening them up to allow a bigger bolt or buy the pressed steel version. Cheers Stot |
Looking good pal,
1 question the plate your steering column bearing is mounted to, is that still 1mm as per the book or have you beefed it up a bit? I'm just about to tackle that bit is all. Cheers Will |

Back to the dials...
I think the MX5 Nutz guy is stopping doing them as the emails went dry. So I did a little digging and found a guide on making them yourself, although the guide has been taken down now as people were stealing the guide writers designs. Laser print a front, middle and back on acetate and paper. Stick them together with a spray glue. cut them out. |
Add holes for the screws and locators
Cut out the odometer window with a craft knife. Draw round the inside of the window with a black sharpie to hide the white edge. |
Don't forget to cut the middles out like I did.
This is how I popped off the old dial hands. levering against my fingers not the back of the dial. As I changed where the 0 position was, I needed to remove the three tell tale lights so the whole tacho dial would illuminate. |
Put the dial hands back on.
Daylight Night time Came out nice I thought. :D Cheers Stot |
