1960 Vauxhall Victor F Series Bottom Trunnion Bush

tuttyclan, Feb 3, 6:46pm

I am trying to hunt down a trunnion bush (both sides) for my 1960 VauxhallVictor F.
There is a picture of my car in one of my listings.
I have tried googling one but no luck yet.
Does anyone here have any connections of where I could I could find a new one or even have one manufactured or my one reconditioned.
Thanks in advance.

have you tried rare spares! also, whats a trunnion!

They used to come in oversize because they loosen in the arm taking them in and out, also, every second or third bush you did you had to replace the pin as well because that wore on the trunnion. you might have to get some parts made.

Ring Rob at Automotion in Dunedin, I cant put a ph # up or some people will miss out on a sale here (ahem) so do a wee google. The owner is a Vauxhall nutter & Rob is a very talented engineer / they also have heaps of new old stock Vauxhall bits

Cheers

Contact these guys. http://www.vocnz.org.nz/
They are a slightly conservative but quirky bunch, (as all Vauxhall enthusiasts should be!) who are not only very passionate about the ???best from Luton??? but are a mine of information and always willing to help.

Email doesnt work south of those bombay hills mate

That would explain why I have had no reply yet.
If I hear nothing on Monday I will call their 0800 number if that works beyond the Bombays.
