Ace, Aceca & Greyhound Forum / Greyhound boot catch

« on: May 27, 2020, 02:17:04 »

Hello all,
Please can someone send me a good picture of the Greyhound boot catch.
Even after carefully labeling and boxing all parts as part of a complete strip and rebuild I appear to have not labelled this part as well as I would now have liked to.
If it comes to it I can make one or if anyone has any ideas if its possible to buy one from somewhere I would be very grateful for the help.
Kind regards
Trevor

Ace, Aceca & Greyhound Forum / Greyhound drive shafts

« on: July 21, 2015, 13:55:07 »

Hello all,
   
   Help requested again please.
   
   I have just had the joints replaced on the drive shafts and the drivers side one also had to have a new splined shaft fitted.
   
   My question is this. The original splines were 75mm long but the replacement is 54mm will this be a problem?
   
   The fit is very good in the hub and the overall length is right its just the length of the mating surfaces with the shorter splines that concerns me.
   
   Thanks, Trevor

Ace, Aceca & Greyhound Forum / Greyhound Chassis

« on: June 20, 2015, 12:38:29 »

Hi all,
   I have  found the chassis is not completely flat. Both rails are slightly bent. From the A posts there is a 5mm deflection up at the front and from the B posts there is a 12mm deflection up at the back. The mid section between the A and B posts is flat. Both rails are the same and there is no twisting.
   
   Does anyone have the factory drawings for the Greyhound chassis or know if the chassis is designed this way?
   
   Thanks, Trevor

Ace, Aceca & Greyhound Forum / Suspension

« on: June 10, 2015, 05:03:53 »

Hi all,
   I am completely restoring a Greyhound in Perth Western Australia and need some advice if I may.
   My car is missing an anti roll bar. Would anyone know what fits or what diameter the bar should be?
   Also does anyone know where I can get hub seals and suspension bushes for it?
   While I'm here...has anyone had to convert the suspension geometry for any reason. I am looking at ways to convert it so it has adjustment for camber and caster at the front and some sort of tow adjustment for the back. Does anyone have any info reference parts to do this etc..?
   Thanks in advance
