Re: Gearbox connecting rod. Bush needed?
Some models did have a bush, but that looks modified or flogged out. I just used a suitable sized section of fibre reinforced plastic hose as a bush, which works well.

They are the other side of town from me. This bloke is a pleasant 1/2 hour drive away and a price I couldn't say no to.

Re: Clay’s Wedgewood Blue FB Ute
Thanks, that would be good Brett.
Centre fuel bowl was weeping seriously. Float height was high so I shimmed the valve seat and the issue ceased.
