Hi All,

not sure if this sort of info is generally useful, but I've discovered that the push rod for the slave cyl for a v8 manual R380 box is now no longer made.

part number:

FTC3913

there's a couple on the shelf somewhere which famousfour managed to get hold of for me (I've ordered 2). They have access to 2 more, and I think Craddocks might have access to a couple, but that seems to be it. LRdirect and paddocks have come up blank.

Just thought I'd let folk know in case anyone knows they're going to need one soon.

Is it a complicated shape? Or the sort of thing one could knock up on a lathe?

I imagine it's almost identical to the readily available 300tdi version, but a slightly different length. The clutch forks are different... Not sure if the slave cylinders themselves are the same.

Arrived this morning from famous four:

11cm long... Funny spike at the end.
