Morris Minor Owners Club

Had a good look at this now What I have noticed is that the bump stop has been cut off straight/ parallel to the axle I have looked at pictures of new ones and they are shaped similar to a cam which I think would give significantly more give than the current squzre shape. I was considering trying to...

That looks to be in order. Here's a working switch in the centre or off position: Centred.JPG Now with the left hanbd position on, we can see one of the triggers sticking out furter: Left.JPG Because the trigger is spring loaded, the itt (it will forever be that on this board) can pass from the cen...

Just looking at the pics you posted I can see one of the triggers is loose on mine. The pin on which the trigger pivots in is higher and consequently the triggee is just spinning. The trigger has two flats which should marry up with the two flats on the pin Im not sure if this pin is pressed in or s...

The triangular triggers in mine are loose
rhey sit on pegs which are also a different heights and inotice in your pics tbe are identical
I need to get ut apart again

If the rear has been lowered the front has most likely been lowered too. Morris 1000's get lowered more often than you may think and they are not all owned by 17 year olds either 8) Just check against this measurements in the drawings below to determine if has been lowered or not. img185.jpgjpg[/at...

Can you tell where the 'crashing and banging' is coming from? Left/right, front/rear? From the 'side-on' picture the rear of the car definitely looks to be lowered, and that is confirmed by the picture taken of the rear axle. There appear to be 4 leaves in the spring, and there should be 5, AND the...

As regards the front damper - did you remove the valves from the original lever dampers? When fitting tele dampers the original dampers with the valves removed just revert to becoming the suspension top links and nothing else. If you did not remove the original valves you will have double damping t...

Took me 10 minutes to seperate the metric tools from an old wooden crate
the young bloke couldn't believe his luck when I wanted the "other stuff"
We agreed on a tenner....

Any ideas whats missing ?

My saloon has telescopic dampers front and back. It drives really well in corners and gentle bumps etc However if I hit poor surface , pot hole etc it bangs and crashes and shakes your teeth out It feels like there is no "give" at all. Its been a while since I drove an older car but I don...

Thanks Richard
The suspension was from ESM front and back. Not adjustable
I don't believe it was lowered , certainly not on purpose
It does have wider pick up wheels i believe

I will look at that Phil
its as if its hitting some sort of bump stop
