The time is coming when Eric the Morris will need major work. One thing that will need attention is his front suspension legs. I do have a spare pair to put on, but I recall that some time ago there was a slight 'crisis' in getting new replacement legs manufactured.

Does anyone know the current situation? AFAIK Bull Motif no longer list them. I haven't looked elsewhere but wondered it there is a story here- ie do us Morris owners need to be worried?

Regards- Martin

Thank you for that- bookmarked! Smile

There was a panic a couple of years back I remember where there didn't seem to be any source for these, which was rather worrying since every Minor will need one at some stage.
Relief to know that they can be obtained.

I remember that there were some coming in from China or India, but there were questions over their integrity. Given the job they have to do......
Shocked

Thanks again - Martin
