Long nose banjo torque tube - Howard Wright - 06-07-2021 Hi All As per title  . Cheers Howard RE: Long nose banjo torque tube - Howard Wright - 07-07-2021 Hi All Thanks. I have been offered one relatively close by in Wales  . Cheers Howard RE: Long nose banjo torque tube - Hedd_Jones - 06-10-2021 Did you get sorted Howard. Think Ive got one. RE: Long nose banjo torque tube - Howard Wright - 07-10-2021 Hi Hedd Thanks for thinking of me.  I did get one although it was devoid of fittings. However I managed to find a brass oil thrower for the flange end and also to make a bearing lock collar (tested my little old lathe almost as much as my screw cutting skills  ). The cost of a full set of bearings made my eyes water a bit! It’s in the car and I am really surprised by how much difference the 5.25 ratio makes compared to the 4.9.  I don’t notice any difference at higher speeds but at lower speeds and on inclines there appears a lot more torque, making the car more tractable. Once again thanks Cheers Howard
