Sprint overdrive gear lever....

#1 Post by shaunroche »

Anyone know what the thread is at the top of the gear lever on an O/d Sprint gearbox please?

I seem to think it might be 5/16" UNF but not quite sure!*

Cheers!

*3/8 UNC?
Come and see some pretty shoddy, slow driving of a really well prepared competition Sprint here!

I know a 5/8" spanner fits so I would guess it would be 7/16" UNF?
