Cross shaft - jonblob33 - 14-04-2020 Hi, hoping to remove my cross shaft to refurbish during the lockdown. Any chance someone has pictures of one stripped& perhaps a guide as to how & any possible snags? Thanks. Kevin RE: Cross shaft - Howard Wright - 14-04-2020 Hi Kevin Best tell us what year Seven you have. There are lots of variations .....Could be uncoupled (relatively simple) coupled, Girling, rod etc etc. Cheers Howard RE: Cross shaft - jonblob33 - 14-04-2020 Car is 1933 PD. Not sure if cross shaft is two part. I have coupled brakes. Not sure if 2 tubes. Been told 1 should move relatively to other but it’s solid. If I remove it should I be able to split the two without damage. I have the facilities to machine new parts if read but do not want to damage beyond repair. Thanks Kevin. RE: Cross shaft - Ian Williams - 15-04-2020 Assuming the shaft is still correct one for the car, no Kevin it is not possible to split the inner and outer shaft as one can with a later Ruby shaft. I did once show some detailed pictures of a 32 to 36 shaft on here but goodness knows what thread that was now. I will hook through my files to see if I saved the pictures. RE: Cross shaft - Bob Culver - 15-04-2020 The difference between a seized concentric shaft and one not yet seized is not great! Energetic prising between the input and output levers on RHS should produce slight relative movement. it seemed a strange way of "solving" a perceived problem. The old postings referred to and associated are worth searching for.
