Hello Passionford Blokes

Can anyone tell me which supplier I need to be contacting to get the Rose joints and adjusting collars shown in the little white box in this picture?? (think the picture is off of Adrenalin)
I'm building my own rear beam up (getting a local chassis fab to do it.. ) and haven't been able to find a source yet. Tried McGill and they weren't familiar with the adjuster parts.



Cheers
Justin

I haven't phoned them, but having looked through their online listing's, they don't supply the adjusters either..

Anyone else have any suggestions please?

I don't know what kind of rubbish fab shop you're using, but these could be made by any half decent machinist with his eyes closed, would have thought a "fab" place would be able to do these using BNE bearings.
If you are still having trouble pm me your phone number and I'll pass it onto someone that will do these for you, would do them myself if I wasn't busy as very easy to do.

Dingle - Cheers bud, Thought it might come to that, I have a mate who worked his whole working life in a machine shop locally who can do these. He doesn't like doing the job any more though so prices himself high so that me and my friends leave him alone.. Just enquiring as to whether anyone sells them as is. But I realise now my mistake.

Tabetha - It isn't a 'rubbish' Fabrication Workshop. When I visited their premises, there were no lathes or millers in plain view, unlike other rigs jigs and so on, so I didn't ask them.
Yes, I would hope that any decent machinist could turn up/out a sleeve of a particular size, internally thread cut, and a corresponding sleeve externally thread cut to match, and also internally tapped to suit the rose joint.
Eyes closed near one of those things rotating I'm not sure. I guess half decent if he has only one working hand left perhaps??

Joking aside, I appreciate the offer and if I have no joy, I will be in touch. I'd like to talk to you about your saphy rear arb at some point anyway.

Cheers Gents, Much appreciated

Justin
