paddle shift / column query
Pezza - 10/1/08 at 05:28 PM



Was looking at my column and paddle shift earlier and noticed it's a tad wobbly ( technical term there )

Should I have some sort of bearing btween the shaft and the paddle shift housing you reckon?

Cheers
Ben

you need the bearing out of the sierra colume, just needs pressing in

That's the bush kit o go through the bulkhead.

There's a small bearing in the top of the sierra column in the aluminium colar that has the ignition barrel attached. It's very thin and cheap looking, but it does the trick.

I don't have a photo, but someone might come along in a minute who does.
