Duplex timing chain

Need to replace the timing chain on my 1300fwd. Where is the best place to buy a duplex timing chain kit?.
Looking for reliable parts, has anyone got recent experience of doing this job?.
Thanks
Neil.

Re: windscreen rubbers - finishers and trim clips - how much

If they are made I would order 1 early front and 1 early non insert rear.

Re: Help @ star 90

Fluid replaced and system bled. Appears to be holding. Should get us to Gaydon tomorrow.
New Master cylinder coming from Rimmers tomorrow.

Thanks to all that have helped with this. Much appreciated.

Re: Help @ star 90

Thanks For looking Mart. I've been told the part numbers for the kit are 515258 and this checks out with Rimmers site. An alternative number is SP 1963.
Don't know if it's the same as Dolomite ones. Maybe 1300.

Re: 1300FWD Replacement seat belts

Spoke to Securon today. They said that the short buckle strap was for seat mounting so the application list on their site was wrong. The guy I spoke to was insistent that the flexible stalks should not be bent and should be kept as straight as possible. Finished up by saying that they didn’t think ...

Re: 1300FWD Replacement seat belts

I will look tomorrow but I may have to remove the seats to lift that part of the carpet. There is no tunnel as such on the 1300fwd. Hence my thoughts regarding using the rear seat runner to floor bolt as an anchor point for the stalk.
