Too bad the usual suspects no longer sell the complete skinned tubs. Did not Moss used to carry that item? You could always order a complete restoration from someplace like FTFU. Not only could you get a new skinned tub, but also a good rebuilt Bishop cam box with the actual sector shaft seal if you insist on it. No telling what all that would cost.

And also the "satisfaction" of having done it yourself. Your friends and neighbors may not care but there are many here that appreciate what that means! I did reach out to Doug Pelton, [FTFU] with a slightly lengthy email with my thoughts on timbers and the difficulties in mixing timbers from different producers. He did state that Craig Seabrook was a "primary supplier"; " I have Craig as my primary supplier and I try to keep everything in stock, but it takes a long time. As stated previously, I have multiple suppliers for different pieces. We are the only company that builds tubs in the US ..read more

I don't have the lengths, but the conduit can be installed after the fact. As I recall a couple of pieces must be taken apart, the stuff is like a spiral bound notebook and hooks together as it is wound around the loom. It is a bit tricky but can be done as that is how I put it on my loom. Some needle nose pliers are needed to assist the job.

You might have a problem. The conduit is installed as the loom is being assembled. I don't know how the conduit can be installed after the fact. There might be a way but I don't know of it. I've had the same problem. Statistics: Posted by Mark Strang — Tue Apr 23, 2024 1:58 am ..read more

Apologies if this appears twice. I thought I posted it but I couldn't see it afterwards: I bought my TC wiring loom from Autosparks (UK) at a car show a few years ago but it didn't come with the metal conduit that protects the loom in certain places. Does someone have a schedule of the diameters and lengths that I need please. Also, can anyone recommend a UK supplier for a decent price.

Yeah that's what I mean, the other tool I have reacts slowly, so if the airflow was erratic then it might not show up as well as on the Unisyn, which reacts very quickly. Statistics: Posted by Steve Simmons — Mon Apr 22, 2024 5:04 pm ..read more

Lou, you have not taken it apart all the way. There should be a sort of ball and socket joint inside. Maybe it needs a light application of grease? These do operate a bit on wishful thinking, and tend to be a bit difficult to deal with as far as adjustment. Tightening it too much will lock it in place. I have a split lock washed behind the nut. I may have added that... Tell us what Doug's thoughts are. Always interesting to hear what the vendor has to say. Statistics: Posted by Duncan M — Mon Apr 22, 2024 5:03 pm ..read more
