OPTIMA MID CUSTOM 'SLIPPER'???

[BORMAC]

I thought this might be a good place to seek out some advice as to how i might fit a slipper assembly to my Mid Custom Special vintage racer project car.
Im not looking for an ultra modern solution with B4 spurs or anything but if anyone might have a suggestion to help me fit 'ROBINSON' type spus that would be great.

Cheers-Jason

Hello Jason
I would go the modern route my self, purely because of the ease of getting the components
chances are you will need to modify them a little and if it goes wrong or half way through you think of a better way to do it, then you can easily source new parts
hope this makes sense

my old mid used to wear a b3 slipper assembly with a home made back plate and using cone spring washers to allow room for a nyloc nut to still fit on the mid shaft, may not have been perfect but it did the trick.
