Hi Roger,

If JCS are out of stock, I suggest that you try the internet. I know the Javelin one's are quite short but the one's for Morris Minors look a pretty good guess. There are a pair on eBay for £8.40 and free P&P. Probably worth a try?

All the best,

David

I replaced mine in 2016. I can not remember where I got them but I do remember it was not hard, searching the net and finding them on Moss or Holden.

Thanks for all the advice. In the end the JCS ones were the incorrect dia at the rack end, so a selection at the motor factors were measured to find one to suit. Not sure of it's rightful home though unfortunately.
