I use Simply Bearings as well funnily enough.
Simon, as promised the bearings that I purchased from Redhill Bearings in 2006 were NK110/20 and at the time they cost £5.25+vat. Brian 8227  |

Not even from China, and closest was a needle roller bearing 110/30.... |

Thanks everyone for the information and advice. I passed it on to my mechanic and his response is this:
"I think for starters replace the front ball joints as they are pretty tired , check and replace the upper gearbox mount and check all the subframe mounts as a little movement in each won't help, in addition check the steering idler for play and replace the bushings in at least the throttle pedal as it is sticky. I don't think there is a corrosion problem with the subframe or where it attaches to the car".
I will let you know how we get on and how the car drives after all this!
Thanks, M.

Good news that its not the car hinging in the middle. I can remember driving a friend's car with the gear lever going up and down an inch and a half on and off the throttle. It wasn't long after the subframe ripped out.

I had one like that in the 70's David. A Brown 1.3S Coupe which I bought in Windsor with an MOT. It was so rusty and the rear of the car wasn't really connected to the front. Kind you it had a great engine which I fitted in my all aluminium Sport ........and its still in the car today I believe.

Bearings arrived yesterday and took me 5 mins to fit today - didn't need to remove the pedal from the floor , enough flex to slide the bearings in/out
No time for a run today, but seems better - time (or Tim) will tell

Good to hear they were easy to change. Quick question. How many bearings do I need to order. Are there two per pedal. Should I change for all pedals? Lastly were they bought from that link on SimplyBearings? Thanks Michael |

2 per pedal and mine came from "123-roulement" here in France. I think they were about £1.50 each from "simply bearings"

Thank you. M Only 2 total for the Accelerator pedal as other pedals do not have them. |

I like the idea of this mod. Will order bearings today. Simon, when you say 'enough flex', what did you do? Pull the top of the pedal towards the seat and bend it slightly in the centre so that the arm and bearings slid out the bottom of the 'C' section? |
