I just bought a 52 MG TDr VW. It’s an older Fiberfab kit. The brakes are almost gone. Bleeding gets mostly air, but resevoir is near full. So I’m looking at replacing master cylinder. However I can not see how to get access between fire wall and cylinder mount under the hood. The frame is welded. Removing body panels looks too diffic…[Read more]

@stephenhouser. Hello, I’m new to the site. I can’t see how to search forums. When in the forum for my replica I click on the search icon, and enter ‘brakes’ for example, all I get is a text file. Please advise. Thanks

Don’t use the search icon at the top of the page. Go into the forums (choose forums from the menu) and you should see a search box with a “search” button. Use that one to search the forums.
The search icon in the menu searches the “site” but somehow not the forums.
-
@philipgregory Good point. I’ll have to look at (a) why search doesn’t show up there and (2) if we can narrow the search to the forum you are looking at.

All fixed. I ordered a hub from Forever Sharp. I had to have it machined a bit to minimize the offset, but that was cheap and simple. Went from 6″ to 3″. Now I can get in and out without scraping my ribs. Thanks for the advice.

Thanks Sam, and all. I think I will give Forever Sharp a call and see about their adapter. If necessary buy a new wheel with the shorter adapter.

That sounds like it was quite a project. More than I would want to take on. But, it would solve my problem. I’m still hoping for a cheaper solution. I’m sure there is a smaller adapter out there some where.

Thank you for your reply Ed. Yes, I’ve looked at eBay, amazon and mg td parts and kit parts sites. My wheel is a 3 spoke with 2 holes in each spoke. It looks like this one, http://lovesphotoalbum.com/2012/08/09/td-model-of-1952-mg-wooden-steering-wheel-dashboard/I've seen some adapters that could fit but they don’t specify the shaft di…[Read more]
