    R180 Differential Pinion Oil Seal Issue

    240Z hand brake lever rechroming?

    Has anyone been able to get the lever rechromed without disassembling the mechanism which is pressed and welded together ? Mine is rusted in parts and generally pitted. Not sure what's possible with the process itself i.e. 'masking off'. Any alternative techniques to make it look tidy? Thanks

    On the assembly drawing there are clevis pins shown at the top of each pedal but I can't remember any being there when it was stripped down (some time ago), and I can't find them so what are they there for? They are not for the springs as they go directly into the pedal. Thanks
